Dwaraka

The citizens of Mathura,
Completely unaware of the danger named Jarasandh looming on their heads fell into a peaceful slumber.
They knew that no matter what Krishna and Balram would always protect them and they had nothing to worry about.

The next morning,
One of the palace maids who had returned to her home after a few days,
Woke up extremely early in the morning to reach the palace and start her duties on time.
As soon as she stepped out of her house
She was completely perplexed because she didn't recognise the place she was in,
It wasn't Mathura,
It was much more divine and the biggest shock was they were surrounded by water,
She was unable to comprehend what was going on so she screamed to alert everyone and soon everyone was out of their houses equally shocked.

( sorry guys if the chapter feels a little out of the place or all over the place because I was unsure of which direction to take this chapter in,
So please forgive me this one time)

The shock did not end there because the houses which were not in the best shapes were replaced by houses made of the best quality materials,
Looking around the city many people started to claim that this city was built by the Gods and for the Gods.
One of the many people suddenly exclaimed," Sthan Ko Dekhkar Aisa Nahin Lagta Jaise Ham vaikunth pahunch gaye ho!" And soon everybody started to agree with him.

Suddenly they heard chariots being pulled and soon in front of them were their Crown prince and princess,
The people without wasting a second started asking them questions but Krishna just smiled and raised his hand
Requesting them to calm down and said," Main Jaanta hun ki aap sab atyant ajambhit Honge ki Ham kahan hain,
Ham kahan hain yah aapko batane se purv main aap sab ko cal kya hua vah batana Chahta hun,---------". Then he proceeded to narrate everything that had happened the day before in the Council and then said,

" Uske bad maine aur aapki yuvrani Ji Ne Milkar bahut Socha aur ant Mein Ham is nirnay per Aaye ki Hamen Vishwakarma ji ke liye ek Mahayagya karvana chahie,
jisse vah prasann hokar ek Mahan Nagar ka Nirman Karke Ham per Kripa Karen aur jo Humne Socha Tha Vahi hua Puri ratri Vishwakarma ji ke liye Yagya karne ke bad vah prasann Hue aur unhone Hamari is ichcha ko purn Kar Diya."

The people were unable to digest this and looked towards other Yadava leaders who just nodded their heads and confirmed that they had indeed been there for the Mahayagya which pleased Lord Vishwakarma.

After a few minutes when people seemed to have digested the fact, Prema addressed them by saying," Main Janti Hun Ki Mathura chhodana aur is nai Nagari Mein bus Jana ab Sabke Liye kathin hoga, Aakhir Mathura aapki Janmabhoomi jo hai Kintu Vahi Janmabhoomi Jarasandh Ke Karan Khatre Mein the isiliye apni Janmabhoomi Ko Chhod is nai Nagari ka Nirman Kiya Hai, aur ham Hamare Karmon ki Shakti se is naye Rajya ko Mathura Se Bhi Jyada gauravan bandage, Aryavart ka sabse shaktishali Rajya bandage, Ham sab aise apni Shakti se Dharti Ka vaikunth bandage. Aur ISI karanvash Vishwakarma Ji Ne is Nagari ka naam 'Dwarika' Rakha Hai,
Vaikunth ka Dwar Hogi yah Nagari,
Mathura aapki Janmabhoomi thi Kintu Dwarika aapki Karmabhoomi Hogi."
With her speech, Prema inspired every one of the citizens to work hard to turn this City into a home for themselves.

6 months later,

People of Mathura had adjusted to Dwaraka with no problem, and with their hard work and dedication in just 6 months Dwarka became a trading hub,
A Cultural Centre for people from all over Aryavart, great people brought culture from all over the country,
Dwarika was a Haven for artists,
People seeking wisdom, Rishi-Munis,
Tradespeople and people seeking calm.

Soon after the establishment of Dwarka the question of who would be the leader arose among the Yadava leaders,
In such a situation Narad Muni who was visiting Dwarka recommended that they find candidates who would be perfect for the role and then a voting would be held where everyone would get one vote and the candidate who got the most votes would become the leader of the yadavas.

Just as Narad Muni had suggested they started looking for the best candidate and the one everyone unanimously  agreed on was none other than the Crown Prince of Mathura who was now known as, 'yadukultilak,
devkinandan, Dwarakadhish Vasudev Krishna'. He selected his elder brother,
Rohini Nandan Balram as mahamahim. Ruling beside him was his first wife and Chief queen,
'Dwarkadhishwari hiranmayi Prema'
She is also known as Ujjain samragini hiranmayi. She rules along side him and in her own right.

In his Council apart from the mahamahim, the queen and him, there were his sister in law and his second wife Revathi and Radha,
Revati was an advisor and Radha was a Minister of agriculture and cattle farming, Satyaki the chief of military, the wife of satyaki and the spy master who pretends to be the head maid of dwarkadhishwari,
His father Vasudev the Prime Minister, his mother Devaki Rajmata and advisor and his other mother Rohini who was advisor and Rajmata.
