Map showing the extent of the Chola empire during Rajendra Chola I (c. 1030 CE) per http://cw.routledge.com/textbooks/9780415485432/15.asp "THE CŌḶAS" by K. A. Nilakanta Sastri and other histories of South Asia consulted. The file has several changes from the original. The map is corrected to show areas of influence and direct control in Sri Lanka. Correction was based on the work of Spencer, G. (1976). The Politics of Plunder: The Cholas in Eleventh-Century Ceylon. The Journal of Asian Studies, 35(3), 405-419. doi:10.2307/2053272.

The correction about the Chola influence in Malay areas is based on https://archive.org/details/earlykingdomsofi0000muno/page/118/mode/2up

The influence added the area of Lamuri based on the Tanjore inscription. Andaman is deleted leaving only Nicobar (information on Tanjore inscription).
