Emperor of India
The title Emperor of India was used by the British monarchs during the British Raj in the Indian Subcontinent from 1876 (see Royal Titles Act 1876) until 1948,〔''India Independence Act 1947'' (10 & 11 Geo. 6. c. 30)〕 after India had attained independence from the United Kingdom, when for a transitional period the British monarch was also king of the independent dominions of India and Pakistan.
The term "Emperor of India" is also used to refer to Indian emperors such as Great Chola (rajan ) Emperor Ashoka of the Maurya Dynasty and Emperor Akbar of the Mughal Empire. For instance, Emperor Ashoka used the word 'Samrat' as his title, which means "Emperor" in Sanskrit and other Indian languages.〔Ashoka by R. G. Bandarkar (Asian Educational Service: 2000)〕 The title was also used in 1857 by the last Mughal emperor Bahadur Shah II until he was captured by the British.
==Bahadur Shah II==
(詳細はMughal dynasty ruled over most of the Indian subcontinent from the 16th century onwards, they simply used the title ''Badishah'' (Badishah or badshah means "Great King" or King of Kings, somewhat close to the title of ''emperor'') without geographic designation.
During the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the rebel sepoys seized Delhi and proclaimed the Mughal Bahadur Shah II as ''Badishah-e-Hind'', or Emperor of India. He had little or no control over the rebellion. The British crushed the rebellion, captured Bahadur Shah and exiled him to Rangoon, Burma in 1858, whereupon the Mughal dynasty came to an end,〔William Dalrymple, ''The Last Mughal: The Fall of a Dynasty: Delhi, 1857'' (2008) pp 179, 200, 208, 275, 339-40〕 and the title passed with him.
