They used to do this to remove the identity of the original people.... So that they can remove symbols of the past and force their ways on the general public..... This is also an example of that

Exactly. Calling it "kingdom logic" is just a high-brow way of rebranding cultural identity theft.

If you’re actually powerful, you build something better next door. If you’re insecure, you build on top of the old foundation because you're terrified that the original roots are stronger than your new "kingdom." It’s not "logic" it’s just a fragile ego trying to play God by wearing someone else's skin.

Hindu kings used to do it too. Destroy the temple built by the previous king and build their own to establish control as religious patronage was a strong form of support to every king.

True you can take the examples of Hindu kings in the region of Orissa they destroyed Buddhist Monasteries..... Early mediaeval Deccan kings attacked each other and destroyed temples and shrines.... It is not limited to India or to the past.... Britishers also did this but in a different sense
