The map edit
The map is wrong, you are showing Indian subcontinent, not covering all of north west Kushan Empire borders Aceditor00 (talk) 06:45, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Aceditor00: The map used in the infobox so far (File:Kushan_Empire_(highlighted).jpg) is not "wrong", it is directly scanned from a public-domain reliable source. On the contrary, the map you are inserting (File:Kushan.jpg) is less clear because of its over-cropping, less reliable because it was hand-made by a Wikipedian, and it is already present in the article anyway (File:Kushanmap.jpg), with detailed sources, explanations and caveats. पाटलिपुत्र Pat (talk) 07:04, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
When you are showing something on a map, it should be covering the entirety, you ar showing the Indian part of the the empire Aceditor00 (talk) 07:42, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
There is no detaile on your map the capital is not shown, nor the important cities. Aceditor00 (talk) 07:43, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Clearly the Ksatrapa-Mahaksatrapa governance system was in place before the Kushans. The Kṣaharāta rulers of Chuksa / Taxila (known c. 05 CE), Mathura Satraps, so-called Kardamaka line of Caṣṭaṇa (c. 78 CE) - are all styles satraps and great satraps.
On the contrary, Kujula Kadphises is described as a "yavuka" / "yabghu" (commonly thought to mean 'yuvaka' or young-prince of a collateral line). While they may serve the same purpose - there's no need to explicitly claim Kushans were the first to install the system.
