There are 52 varieties of Բs mentioned [e.g., ñ] based on differences of -measurements and ṣṭԲ-basements; but the treatment upon examination gives only the most superficial of distinctions between one type and another.

General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Hinduism1) ʲñ (पञ्चाल) is a Sanskrit word referring to the kingdom of King Drupada.
2) ʲñ (पञ्चाल) is a Sanskrit word referring to the five sense objects.
: WikiPedia: Hinduism1) ʲñ (पञ्चाल, panchala) is an ancient region of northern India, which would encompass the modern-day states of Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh. During the ancient times, it was home to a confederacy, the Panchalas and in c. 6th century BCE, it was considered as one of the solasa (sixteen) mahajanapadas.
2) The Panchala Kingdom extended from Himalayas in the north to river Charmanwati in the south during the period of Mahabharata. It had Kuru, Surasena and Matsya kingdoms to the west and the forest Naimisha to the east. Later, Panchala was divided into Southern Panchala (Panchala proper ruled by King Drupada, the father in law of Pandavas) and Northern Panchala (Ruled by Ashwathama, the son of Drona. Drona was Drupada's former friend who became his enemy later). The Ganges River separated the two Panchalas.
Northern Panchala: Capital: Ahichatra :- Ruins near Ramnagar Uttar pradesh
Southern Panchala: Capital: Kampilya :- Kampil, Fatehgarh, Uttar Pradesh
In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper Names1) Pancala, Pancalajanapada, Pancalarattha, Pancala
One of the sixteen Mahajanapadas (A.i.213; iv.252, etc.). It consisted of two divisions: Uttara Pancala and Dakkhina Pancala. The river Bhagirathi formed the boundary between the divisions. According to the Kumbhakara Jataka, the capital of Uttara Pancala was Kampillanagara, where a king named Dummukha once reigned.
J.iii.379; also Mtu.iii.26; but the Dvy. (435) calls the capital Hastinapura. According to the Mahabharata (i.138, 73-4), the capital was Ahicchatra or Chatravati, while the capital of Daksina Pancala was Kampilya.
Pancala was to the east of the Kuru country, and, in ancient times, there seems to have been a constant struggle between the Kurus and the Pancalas for the possession of Uttara Pancala. Thus, sometimes, Uttara Pancala was included in the Kuru kingdom (E.g., J.v.444; also Mahabharata i.138), but at other times it formed a part of Kampillarattha (E.g., J.iii.79; v. 21, 289) Kampilla probably being the capital of Dakkhina Pancala. So it happened that sometimes the kings of Kampillarattha had their capital in Uttara Pancala nagara, while at others the kings of Uttara Pancala nagara had their capital in Kampilla nagara. Culani Brahmadatta is described in the Maha Ummagga Jataka as king of Pancala, with his capital in Kampilla.
J.vi.329, 396, etc.; also PvA. 161; see also Uttaradhiyayana Sutra (SBE. xlv. 57 61) and the Ramayana (i.32). Similarly Sambhuta was king of Uttara Pancala (J.iv.392ff.). Sometimes the king of Pancala is merely spoken of as Pancala e.g., J.iv.430, v. 98. See also Jayaddisa.
There seems to have been a chieftain (raja) of Pancala even in the Buddhas day, for we are told (ThagA.i.331) that Visakha Pancaliputta (q.v.) was the son of the daughter of the Pancala raja. Pancala is generally identified (Law: Geog. of Early Buddhism, p. 19.) with the country to the north and west of Delhi, from the foot of the Himalaya to the river Chambal.
2) Pancala Vagga
The fifth section of the Navaka Nipata of the Anguttara Nikaya. A.iv.449 54.
3) Pancala Sutta
A discussion between Ananda and Udayi (Kaludayi) regarding a verse uttered by the devaputta Pancalacanda (See S.i.48) as to what constitutes obstacles (sambadha) in the world and what release therefrom (okasadhigama). Udayi says that the five sensuous pleasures are the sambadha, and that okasadhigama consists in the attainment of the jhanas. A.iv.449f.; AA.ii.815.
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).

Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources.

Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)

ʲñ (पञ्चाल) (in Chinese: ʲ-ٳö-) is the name of an ancient kingdom associated with ṛgś or ṛgśnakṣatra, as mentioned in chapter 18.

In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: Trisastisalakapurusacaritraʲñ (पञ्चाल) (distinguished by the city Kāmpīlya) refers to one of the 25½ countries of the ṣeٰⲹ, situated in the “middle world� (madhyaloka), according to chapter 2.3 [ᾱٲٳ-ٰ] of Hemacandra’s 11th century հṣaṣṭśܰṣaٰ (“lives of the 63 illustrious persons�): a Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three important persons in Jainism.
Accordingly:—“In these 35 zones on this side of Mānuṣottara and in the Antaradvīpas, men arise by birth; [...]. From the division into Āryas and Mlecchas they are two-fold. The Āryas have sub-divisions [e.g., ṣeٰ (country)]. [...] The ṣeٰⲹ are born in the 15 Karmabhumis. Here in Bharata they have 25½ places of origin (e.g., ʲñ), distinguishable by cities (e.g., Kāmpīlya) in which the birth of Tīrthakṛts, Cakrabhṛts, Kṛṣṇas, and Balas takes place�.
: HereNow4u: Lord Śrī Mahāvīrañ (पाञ्चा�) or Pāṃcāla is the name of a district visited by Mahāvīra during his 19th Year as 𱹲ī.—After completing the rainy season, wandering through Sāketa, Sāvatthī, etc in Kauśala country, the Lord arrived at ñ and stayed at Sahasrāmravana of Kampilapura.

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.

: Ancient Buddhist Texts: Geography of Early Buddhismʲñ (पञ्चाल) refers to one of the sixteen Mahājanapadas of the Majjhimadesa (Middle Country) of ancient India, as recorded in the Pāli Buddhist texts (detailing the geography of ancient India as it was known in to Early Buddhism).—Like the Kuru country, the ʲñ country too, which, by the way, is also mentioned in the Aṅguttara Nikāya as one of the sixteen Mahājanapadas of Jambudīpa, was divided into two divisions: the northern or Uttarā ʲñ and the southern or Dakṣiṇa ʲñ, the Bhagirathi forming the dividing line. In the Divyāvadāna we read of two ʲñvishayas: Uttarā ʲñ and Dakṣiṇa ʲñ. The Jātakas as well as the Ѳٲ also refer to these two divisions of the country.
ʲñ was originally the country north and west of Delhi from the foot of the Himalaya to the river Chambal, but it was divided into North and South ʲñ, separated by the Ganges. It roughly corresponds to modern Budaon, Furrukhabad and the adjoining districts of the United Provinces.
