Śrīmad Bhāgavatam
[Canto 3, Ch. 18]
TRANSLATION
There was keen rivalry between the two combatants; both had sustained injuries on their bodies from the blows of each other's pointed maces, and each grew more and more enraged at the smell of blood on his person. In their eagerness to win, they performed maneuvers of various kinds, and their contest looked like an encounter between two forceful bulls for the sake of a cow.
PURPORT
Here the earth planet is called  ilā . This earth was formerly known as  Ilāvṛta-varṣa , and when  Mahārāja Parīkṣit  ruled the earth it was called  Bhārata-varṣa . Actually  Bhārata-varṣa  is the name for the entire planet, but gradually  Bhārata-varṣa  has come to mean India. As India has recently been divided into Pakistan and Hindustan, similarly the earth was formerly called  Ilāvṛta-varṣa , but gradually as time passed it was divided by national boundaries.
