Countless kṣatriya peoples, 'glorious, weapons in hand,' bring tribute — not broken by force, but acknowledging precedence. It is telling that the armed and proud bow of their own accord: their submission is not the fruit of defeat but a tribute to worth. The verse teaches that the highest power is the one to which even the strong submit willingly: where no sword is needed to gather tribute, true greatness reigns. The righteous one gathers not through fear but through recognition. And the longest list of submitting peoples is a measure not of Yudhiṣṭhira's wealth but of the universal recognition of his rightness — something the envious cannot seize by any conquest.
