Raghogarh State, also known as Raghugarh and as Khichiwara, was a princely state of the Gwalior Residency, under the Central India Agency of the British Raj. It was a Thikana state of about 109 km2 with a population of 19,446 inhabitants in 1901. The Parbati River marked the western border of the state.〔(Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 21, p. 34. )〕 The capital was at Raghogarh〔 in present-day Guna district of Madhya Pradesh. ==History== Raghogarh State was established in 1673 by Lal Singh Khichi, a Rajput of the Khichi clan, a branch of the clan to which Prithvi Raj the founder of Delhi belonged. The state took its name from the fort of Raghogarh, founded in 1673 by Raja Lal Singh himself in 1677. Raghogarh state prospered for a century, but saw its fortune wane owing to Maratha attacks led by Mahadaji Shinde around 1780.〔 By 1818 there were disputes regarding succession in Raghogarh, which were settled through the intervention of the British authorities.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Raghogarh State」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
