Several South Indian dynasties like the Kadambas, Gangas, Cholas, Chalukyas, Rastrakutas, Hoysalas and the Vijaynagar Rayas ruled over Kodagu. Despite the Kodavas being members of the Indian warrior caste and known in India as ‘brave warriors’, Kodagu did not have indigenous rulers, as the Kodavas failed to evolve political consensus. Many diverse ethnic communities can be found in Coorg, with Kodavas being the main ethnic group.
