Many, many years ago, this land was ruled by a king named Hari Ka Buskid. He was a wise king, and during his reign the people of his kingdom were rich and prosperous.</p> <figure class="image-medium"> <a class="lightbox-link" href="https://www.pitara.com/media/the-angry-king_hu_c99ca0f16b6fa2b6.webp" aria-label="Link to larger image"> <img src="https://www.pitara.com/media/the-angry-king_hu_ff88915d8c9ae719.webp" srcset="https://www.pitara.com/media/the-angry-king_hu_ce871f2d8ee3a046.webp 320w, https://www.pitara.com/media/the-angry-king_hu_ff88915d8c9ae719.webp 900w" sizes="(min-width: 900px) 900px, 320px" alt="The Angry King" height="672" width="900" loading="lazy"> </a> </figure> <p>The king did not scorn to go among the tobacco-growers and advise them on the best methods of tending their crops.
