Which of the following sequences correctly arranges the Vijayanagara rulers in the order of their reign periods?
Harihara I → Devaraya II → Krishnadeva Raya
Harihara I was one of the founding rulers of the Vijayanagara Empire in the mid-14th century, establishing the kingdom along with his brother Bukka Raya to resist the expansion of the Delhi Sultanate into South India.
Devaraya II ruled in the 15th century, well after the founding generation, and is remembered for strengthening the empire's military by recruiting Muslim archers and expanding its territorial control.
Krishnadeva Raya ruled in the early 16th century and is considered the greatest ruler of the Vijayanagara Empire, presiding over its peak in terms of art, literature, and military power.
Arranging these rulers chronologically places Harihara I first, followed by Devaraya II, and finally Krishnadeva Raya.
Hence, the answer is Harihara I → Devaraya II → Krishnadeva Raya.
