Expert Answer
The empire of the Chola rulers was divided into provinces called mandalams. The mandalamswere further divided into administrative sub units called the valanduor nadu. Princes from the family relations of the Cholas were appointed as provincial governors. This was done with the explicit intention to negate the possibility of rebellions.
