Strudeler’s Civilizations: Nepal
Play as the Maharajadhiraj of Gorkha that founded Nepal, Prithvi Narayan Shah; in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI.
Nepal is the cultural melting pot of hundreds of ethnic groups and a one of the holiest realms of the Dharmic religions as it is the epicenter of Siddhartha Gautama’s earliest teachings and at the foot of the Himalayas. There have been a few periods of a united Nepali Raj but the Himalayas Hills were mostly splintered during the medieval period. The unifier of Nepal, Prithvi Narayan Shah, claimed that his Gorkhali Rajahnate was "Asal Hindustan" or the true Indian state as the south had succumbed to Mughals or the British. The Gorkhali state subsumed other principalities in the region through annexation by warfare or diplomacy. The soldiers under Prithvi Narayan Shah proved to be fierce fighters, earning the respect of the British who would seek the incorporation of Gurkhas in their armies. Gurkhas serve in Nepal, India, the United Kingdom, and Malay to this day.
