Abstract	“Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat” is the new day slogan cherishing our Sovereign, Socialist, Secular, Democratic and Republic India of the 21st century. The chronicles of Bharat which defined the pathways indeed corroborates the times when our motherland was hailed as Sindhu and Hindustan. Every aspect of the Indian geography defined in the domain of the North-Western Frontier led to the addition of a new chapter describing the reign of a new dynasty with a foreign invader on the land of Bharat. These routes built to provide a voyage to our land firmly acted as a catalyst of metamorphosis in terms of physiography of Bharat. The passes set in the mountain ranges of the Himalayas were a testimony of the scars of invaders on our soil. One such holocaust of history is the Battle of Tarain I and II (1191–1192 A.D.) between Muhammad Ghori and Prithvi Raj Chauhan. Invaders crossing the rugged borders making their way to Tarain leading to the heart of our motherland shaped the history of Bharat indeed was highly influenced by the physiography of ancient India. Furthermore, the globe connected through globalization is often regarded as a brainchild of the 21st century economists. Although, the genesis of trade and commerce which connected the landmasses are buried under the layers of historical texts in the illustrations labeled as the famous Silk Route. India, the hub of education, innovation and heritage was a center point taking hold of attention of scholars and philosophers. After months of travelling their chronicles became reflections of the past for the future generations to redraw the borders of Bharat. Strabo, Pliny and Megasthenese each elaborated the frontiers with their lenses describing India as snow capped mountains of the Himalayas crowned in the North, Rajputana in the West, Kamrup in the east in the Ganges basin and Cape Camorin in the South. Hence, the dominance of Bharat in relation to its contemporaries was built on culture and heritage which developed from the physiography as well as its position in the international waters.
