Sohawal State was a princely state of the Bagelkhand Agency of the British Raj. It was a relatively small Sanad state of about 552 km2 with a population of 32,216 inhabitants in 1901. Its capital was at Sohawal, a small town —2,108 inhabitants in 1901— located in modern Satna district of Madhya Pradesh. The state was divided in two sections separated by territory belonging to Kothi State and in its northern side it formed little enclaves within neighbouring Panna State.〔(Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 23, p. 70. )〕 ==History== Sohawal State was founded in the mid sixteenth century by a ruler named Fateh Singh. It had been originally much larger, but lost much territory within the first centuries of its existence.〔 Sohawal became a British protectorate initially subordinate to Panna State, but a separate ''sanad'' was granted to ''Rais'' Aman Singh in 1809. During the 1830 - 1833 period there was an interregnum in which Sohawal came under direct British administration.〔 The last ruler of Sohawal signed the instrument of accession to the Indian Union on 1 January 1950.〔 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「Sohawal State」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
