You wanted evidence of the foreign influence G was trying to avoid by uniting Aryavarta? Here you go.
The CHINESE fought with Bhagdatta in KK (seems that may have been the first Indo China war 😆)
And apparently, Arjun passed through China during the first imperial campaign
Anu if Chinese fought with Bhagdatta then it proves that some part of china was perhaps considered part of Aryavarta
I mean it wasn't a foreign country but part of Aryavarta only.Aryavarta of those times wasn't India of today it was much larger and the fact that Arjuna goes there in his imperial campaign also shows that it was considered to be a part of Aryavarta not a foreign country.And geographically this is very possible
See my reasons for not agreeing that krishna ji wanted to unite Aryvarta or fought KK for social reformation or to avoid foreign invaders is very very simple nothing complicated
1)It wasn't krishna ji 's idea to unite aryavarta in the first place it was yudi's
2)A very very simple reason krishna ji never says so in the entire epic😆 neither for kk nor for uniting Aryavarta its all about getting P's justice
The only way we can consider that krishna ji had some other purpose like social reformation or avoiding foreign invaders is that if we say things have been changed,edited etc
But even then as far as i know krishna ji never talks about social reformation or avoiding foreign invaders or uniting aryavarat in any other version Malyam,Bengali,indonesian etc
Of course this is a non divine POV where i am ignoring Brahma' promise to Bhumidevi and all incarnations if i consider this then definitely krishna ji had a greator purpose if not then it was just helping P's as he has said many times during the epic
