Description
A city born in storm, nurtured in rivalry and established as battling ground for European empires.
This phrase is a good description of Kochi, which was formed as an ancient port city after the Great Floods of the Periyar River in 1341. With partitioning of Chera Kerala empire in 14th century, this region came under control of a new dynasty, rivaled by other local feudal lords.
With the advent of colonization, Kochi became the first major battle grounds of almost all European powers.
