The 17th century Italian traveler Pietro Dall Valle’s accounts provide a vivid portrayal of portrayal of Rani Abbakka, who despite her humble appearance, commanded immense respect and authority. Engaged in irrigation projects and other public works, she exemplified a ruler dedicated to her people’s welfare. She was known for her equitable rule and concerned for her subjects’ welfare. Abbakka forced an inclusive governance model, characterized by direct involvement in various administrative sectors, serves as a beacon for contemporary leaders. Abbakka’s constant war against the Portuguese was market by her commitment to her principality. Her resentence extended beyond the Portuguese’s, facing challenges from Kaladi Venkatappa Nayaka later on. – Reproduced
