there was no concept of a singular India under one banner unless you
count the Mongols.

before that there were countless Princedoms and Fiefdoms.

much before twice Hind came together in what could be called
an akhand India, once with Chandragupta and once with Asoka.

even when the british sailed up the Sindhu from Manoro [beloved
of old Sindhi Hindus] to Kotri dhakka [port], most of Sindh was
under Moslem Talpur rule, and fell with a single shot fired from an 
ancient cannon from the Kot Qilla ramparts. [I once wandered 
into the bowels of Kot Diji, inland seat of Talpurs, and under 
the ramparts found a human olecranon, elbow bone, and neat
round stone cannon balls].

even during british raj there were many independent rajwada some
which the brits allowed and some which they annihilated.

hind was always there, in terms of terrain and people. the concept of an 
akhand bharat came about when the call for having the brits leave 
came to be a reality.
