When I began my college journey, I often felt lost. Notes were scattered, the internet was overflowing with content, yet nothing truly matched the needs of university exams. I remember the frustration of not knowing what to study, or even where to begin.
That struggle inspired me to create Examopedia—because students deserve clarity, structure, and reliable notes tailored to their exams.
Our vision is simple: to make learning accessible, reliable, and stress-free, so no student has to face the same confusion I once did. Here, we turn complex theories into easy, exam-ready notes, examples, scholars, and flashcards—all in one place.
Built by students, for students, Examopedia grows with your feedback. Because this isn’t just a platform—it’s a promise that you’ll never feel alone in your exam journey.

The Paramara were a Rajput dynasty that ruled Malwa region between the 9th and 14th centuries. Its early rulers were most likely vassals of the Rashtrakutas of Manyakheta. Around 972 CE, Siyaka sacked the Rashtrakuta capital, Manyakheta, and established the Paramaras as a sovereign power. By the time of his successor Munja, the Malwa region in present-day Madhya Pradesh had become the core Paramara territory, with Dhara (now Dhar) as their capital. The dynasty reached its pinnacle under Munja’s nephew Bhoja, whose kingdom stretched from Chittor in the north to Konkan in the south, and from the Sabarmati River in the west to Vidisha in the east.
