Karna (Sanskrit: कर्ण, IAST transliteration: Karṇa), originally known as Vasusena, is one of the central characters in the Hindu epic Mahābhārata. The epic describes him as the king of Anga (present day Bhagalpur and Munger). 
As per the Mahabharata, he was one of the warriors in that era who conquered the entire world.[citation needed] Karna single-handedly and successfully conducted Digvijaya Yatra, a campaign in which he conquered all kings in every direction of the world, and was instrumental in establishing Duryodhana as the emperor of the world by conducting the Vaishnava sacrifice.[1] Karna was equal to 2 Maharatha warriors.
