Gurjaradesa (, or Gurjaratra) is a historical region in India comprising southern Rajasthan and northern Gujarat during the period of 6th–12th century CE. The predominant power of the region, Gurjara Pratihara, eventually controlled a major part of North India centered at Kannauj. The current Indian state of Gujarat derives its name from the ancient Gurjaratra.
