The Gupta conquests of Bengal began with Samudragupta's initial conquest of Bengal, defeating its kings and gaining a large part of that region. Other kings then surrendered to the King of the Gupta Empire. Chandragupta II later defeated the rebel confederacy of Bengal and re-conquered the area, adding it to the Gupta Empire.
