The Rana dynasty ((ネパール語:राणा शासन) ') was a Khas dynasty which claimed Rajput ancestry〔(Greater Game: India's Race with Destiny and China by David Van Praagh )〕 which ruled the Kingdom of Nepal from 1846 until 1951, reducing the Shah monarch to a figurehead and making Prime Minister and other government positions hereditary. Tyranny, debauchery, economic exploitation and religious persecution characterized Rana rule. This changed in 1951 with the promulgation of a new constitution, when power shifted back to the monarchy of King Tribhuvan. The dynasty is descended from Bal Narsingh Kunwar of Kaski who moved to Gorkha in the early 18th century and entered the service of Raja Nara Bhupal Shah around 1740, and of Bhimsen Thapa (1775–1839), who is counted among the National heroes of Nepal. ==Rana Prime Ministers== Nine Rana rulers took the hereditary office of Prime Minister.
