About Diu

History
The Indo-Greek monarchs Eukratides (c. 171–150 B.C.), Meanandar (c. 115–90 B.C.), and Appollodotes II appear to have ruled the District from the first century B.C. to roughly A.D. 50. The district appears to have been governed by the Kshaharatas in the first century, who had already established their dominance over Saurashtra and the western portion of India. Diu was a part of the kingdoms of dynasties that ruled across Gujarat and western India for more than a millennium. In the first ten years of the fifteenth century, Diu was controlled by the final Vaja dynasty monarch of Somnath Patan.
