Eduncle Best Answer
Kautilya in Arthashastra has detailed the notion of Raja Mandala or Circle of States and Shadguna or six-fold diplomatic policy, which can amazingly encompass every aspect of modern foreign policy. The Rajamandala theory consists of four principal types of states viz. Vijigishu (desirous for or would be world conqueror), Ari (enemy, whose territory if contiguous to Vijigishu), Madhyama (Middle king with territory adjoining those of Vijigishu and Ari and stronger than both) and Udasina (kingdom lying outside or neutral and more powerful than that of Vijigishu, Ari, and Madhyama). Each of them has an ally and ally's ally thus making 12 kings and 60 types of combinations called material constituents (for example, enemy's enemy, mitra's enemy, enemy's mitra, mitra's mitra and so on. This together combines into the total 72 elements of Raja Mandala.
