Seeing that there was now no hope for peace, Yudhishthira, the eldest of the Pandavas, asked his brothers to organize their army.
The Pandavas accumulated seven Akshauhinis army with the help of their allies.
Each of these divisions were led by Drupada, Virata, Abhimanyu, Shikhandi, Satyaki, Nakula and Sahadeva.
After consulting his commanders, the Pandavas appointed Dhrishtadyumna as the supreme commander of the Pandava army.
The Mahabharata says that kingdoms from all over ancient India supplied troops or provided logistic support on the Pandava side.
Some of these were: Kekaya, Pandya (Malayadwaja Pandya), Magadha, and many more.
