Kshatriya
Kshatriya (from ''kshatra'', "rule, authority") is one of the four varna (social orders) of the Hindu society. The Sanskrit term ''kshatriya'' is used in the context of Vedic society wherein members organised themselves into four classes: ''brahmin'', ''kshatriya'', ''vaishya'' and ''shudra''.〔Bujor Avari (2007). (India: The Ancient Past: A History of the Indian Sub-Continent from c. 7000 BC to AD 1200, p. 74 )〕 Traditionally, the kshatriya constituted the ruling and military elite. Their role was to protect society by fighting in wartime and governing in peacetime. ==Origins==
