Nagvanshi Kingdom was one of many princely states in British India.[1] Nagvanshis ruled over Chhotanagpur plateau in India for close to two thousand years, from the 1st century to 1951 when the Zamindari was abolished. This would put the Nagvanshis among the top dynasties that ruled the longest in the world, which include the Dulo clan in Bulgaria and The Imperial House of Japan.[2][3] It ended with the passing of Lal Chintamani Sharan Nath Shahdeo in 2014.[4]
