Talk:Chaubisi Rajya

prehistory

This paragraph was deleted without a trace:

This region was prehistorically occupied by Magar, Gurung and Thamang peoples, then colonized by aryan Khas migrating east out of the Karnali-Bheri basin. During the Middle Ages the Khas were joined and progressively Hinduized by refugees from the Indian plains fleeing Muslim invasions. Perhaps by being more culturally and technologically sophisticated, these colonists achieved political, economic and military ascendency and eventually ruled most of the 24 principalities.

Problem, possibly

Hi! I noticed that this is an FLC. First of all, the topic is complex. The petty states were in constant flux with regard to their existence, affiliation, independence, borders, etc. etc. And, not everything is known for certain, so the topic requires a proper article with plenty of prose clarifying all the nuances and uncertainties. But when such an article comes into existence, a list such as this would become superfluous to that. Regardless, the list itself, as it is, has problems. One of the cited sources, ... at Google Books, says ...Gorkha was never included in the list of the chaubisi Rajyas.... It is not available to me in full, but even if it is contradicted somewhere else within, it's an internal inconsistency that needs resolving. The book <Medieval Nepal Part 2, Regmi, DR, 1966> suggests that Makawanpur was counted among the Chaubisis at least for a while. Presumably, Makwanpur was counted when it was under the suzerainty of Palpa and stopped being counted after the Sens rose to power and started their own eastward conquest. The same book says Gorkha was under Lamjung's influence when it was under indigenous rule but gained independence after the Shahs came to power and was then counted among the Chaubisis. It has additional notes about the status of some other members of the list indicating that not all of them were created equal. Some were under the influence of others to varying degrees, some were confederations of even pettier domains, and so on. At the very very least, it seems to be missing a ton of explanatory notes. Ideally, more sources need to be looked at to determine the exact current academic consensus on what's known about the topic. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 04:38, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
