Khuman kingdom explained

"Khuman Leipaak" (literally, "Khuman kingdom"[1]) was an independent powerful kingdom, ruled by the kings of the Khuman dynasty in Ancient Manipur. The principality flourished at the shores of the Loktak lake.[2] [3] Mayang Imphal, the capital city of the kingdom, was situated at the left banks of the Imphal River,[4] until the middle of the 14th century AD.[5] The Khuman kingdom was once more extensive and prosperous than that of the Ningthoujas.[6] However, it became dependent on the Ningthouja kingdom by the 12th century AD.
