Svāyambhuva Manu had two sons by his wife, Śatarūpā, and the names of the sons were Uttānapāda and Priyavrata. Because both of them were descendants of a plenary expansion of Vāsudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they were very competent to rule the universe to maintain and protect the citizens.
Purport
It is said that these two kings, Uttānapāda and Priyavrata, were specifically empowered by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, unlike the great King Ṛṣabha, who was the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself.

Translation
By his wife, Śatarūpā, Svāyambhuva Manu had two sons, Uttānapāda and Priyavrata, who appeared to protect the world as portions of Vāsudeva.
They were situated as portions of the Lord for protection of the world.

Personal Guidance
Uttānapāda and Priyavrata, descendants of a plenary expansion, were competent rulers from the start. Some are empowered by lineage to lead; the burden is not to waste the empowerment.
