In this episode of The History of Nepal, we uncover the 19th-century uprising in the southern Terai plains that defied the Gorkha empire’s rigid caste hierarchy. While Prithvi Narayan Shah unified the hills through military conquest and the Muluki Ain codified social order, the Mithila region resisted with a unique blend of Hindu devotion and local autonomy. We explore how Indravarman I and the Pala dynasty navigated the pressures of expansion, leading to the Great Kosi Floods and the eventual Treaty of Sagauli. Join Lucas and Luna as they trace the political maneuvering, the role of the Kirati frontier, and the cultural legacy of the Newar architects who bridged these divided worlds.
