Chitral (princely state) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chitral (princely state)
Chitral (or Chitrāl) (Urdu:چترال) was a princely state in alliance with British India until 1947, then a princely state of Pakistan until 1969. The ruler, or Mehtar, of Chitral was given the title of His Highness by the British and enjoyed a hereditary salute of 11 guns. The area of the state now forms the Chitral District of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa. ==Location and demographics== The former princely capital, Chitral Town, is situated on the west bank of the Chitral (or Kunar River) at the foot of Tirich Mir which at 7,708 m (25,289 ft) is the highest peak of the Hindu Kush. The borders of the state were seldom stable and fluctuated with the fortunes of Chitral’s rulers, the Mehtars.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.iucn.pk/publications/Chitral-A%20Study%20in%20Statecraft.pdf )〕 The official language of the state was Persian, a legacy of the adaptation policy of the early Delhi sultanate and Mughal times. The general population of the princely state was mainly of the Kho people, who spoke the Arina language (now khowar), which is also spoken in parts of Yasin, Gilgit and Swat. The Khowar language belongs to the Proto Indo-European group of languages.
