Mahabharata gave reference to Marathas and Andhras, who sided Kauravas. Sahadeva defeated Marathas and Andhras. If we talk about the history of Maratha empire, in the first half of 18th C, the Marathas became a superpower ( they ruled from Delhi to Mysore and from Cuttack to Attock in Sindh). In the beginning of 19th C, Marathas were defeated by the Britishers.
