History repeats in itself, not a philosophical dichotomy, will repeat with the reestablishment of Kalinga (Odisha) and Sri Lanka kinship and greater cooperation. Indian History is as old as and as large as any civilization of the world. Historically India was a densely populated subcontinent than any locations of the world. Linguistic variations and cultural variations were always more than twenty types in the Vedic, Pre-Vedic and ancient period in the Indian History. Ancient Indian history was one of the most dynamic phases in the history of world. Religion, Culture and Philosophy of this country experienced the scientific temper in the ancient and early mediaeval period. Kalinga has an outstanding impact as the most progressive province or one of the empires of the sub-continent. Present Odisha, previous Utkal, earlier Udra and oldest Kalinga had acted as a change agent in the subcontinent history. Oldest republican democracy was examined in Kalinga. Trade, commerce and knowledge dissemination role of Orissa was one of the prime in the chapters of Asian History. Kalinga script, Kalinga language, Kalinga people are as the natives of Sri Lanka and Indonesia are available.
