An ancient Indo-Aryan kingdom of eastern India that was one of the Mahajanapadas, located east of Magadha, absorbed by Magadha around 500 BCE.
The Anga kingdom (eastern Bihar) was conquered and annexed by Magadha under King Bimbisara early in his reign (c. 543–540 BCE), with prince Ajatashatru appointed governor at the Anga capital Champa; Anga disappeared as an independent polity.
