Question DII: Can't dance your way around this

A happy Republic Day to all.

“A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.”

Edward Abbey

Now on to the question

The picture below shows the extent of the kingdom of __X__, who is said to have unified the subcontinent under one kingdom.

In the Vedas, __X__ is described as follows

abhūtir eṣā kas tyajyāj jīvañ jīvantam ātmajam

śākuntalaṃ mahātmānaṃ dauḥṣantiṃ bhara paurava

bhartavyo 'yaṃ tvayā yasmād asmākaṃ vacanād api

tasmād bhavatv ayaṃ nāmnā bharato nāma te sutaḥ

Therefore, O thou of Puru's race, cherish thy high-souled son born of __Y__

and because this child is to be cherished by thee even at our word,

therefore shall this thy son be known by the name of ___X___.

 But others argue that the __X__ race, an Ayan tribe mentioned in the Rigveda were successful against other Aryan and Non-Aryan tribes. Thus in the post Vedic tradition, they were deemed as conquerors of all, and hence all was known as __X__.

Question:

1) ID X

2) ID its contribution to the world today (exact answer required).

3) Brownie points for explaining the connection to the title

THE QUIZZARD FINALLY HAS A LOGO.

Thanks to help of a Graphic Designer, Anjana (who can be contacted via the quizzard email id, for any matters), we finally hit upon the right logo for the blog.

Took 2 hours just to get the dimensions right
So a huge thank you to Anjana for her gracious help.

Thats the reason the blog seemed to be in a state fo quiescence, and the logo kept changing.
But the scoreboard never did
(Thats coz i was busy, and Nihar, as usual, lazy
Lol)

WE'LL BE STARTING WITH A NEW THEME ROUND THIS EVENING.
UNTIL THEN, TRY ANSWERING ALL THE OPEN QUESTIONS.

The Evolution of the logo was as such:

Please leave your comments on the logo under this post
