Karnataka is a state in the south western region of India. Originally known as the State of Mysore, it was renamed Karnataka in 1973. The name comes from Tamil words karai (“shore”) and nataka (“dance”). The capital and largest city is Bangalore (Bengaluru). With an antiquity that dates to the paleolithic, Karnataka has been home to some of the most powerful empires of ancient and medieval India. (Source: Wikipedia)
