Considering the present times when Nepal and Nepalese are both drawn into a whirlpool of guilt due to governmental instability and economic down turn. These certainly are the result of burgeoning population, lack of infrastructure, and the terrain which actualy fails to give in terms of resources as much to this needy nation.The impact of all this has been on the morale of the people in this nation which is fast deteriorating and as for the identity one ay want to seek as a Nepali,well i would say here in this site is something one may look forward to as a reminder to who we were and what great feat we are capable of.

The British eventually triumphed, and the once mighty Maratha Empire was absorbed into 'British India', leaving Britain in control of virtually all of present-day India.
