Dhritarashtra had 100 sons from wife Gandhari. The eldest was Suyodhana, who was later known as Duryodhana.
Despite early marriage than brother Pandu, the birth of Duryodhana was late, about four years. Meanwhile, Pandu's eldest son Yudhishthira was born ahead of Duryodhana. So, claim to the throne was in dispute. At a later stage, this led to the great Mahabharata War.
