Nepal
Nepal was created from an amalgam of small principalities in 1768 under King Prithvi Narayan Shah. Under the control of a hereditary king,
Nepal then became a 'buffer state' between the British empire and the territories to the north. The main instrument of British rule from the
mid-19th century onwards was a hereditary Prime Minister drawn from the Rana family. The country became formally independent in 1923, but
it was not until 1947 (the year of Indian independence) and the total withdrawal of the British from the region that Nepal achieved genuine
independence.
