Kingdom of Nepal (Thakuri dynasty)

The Thakuri kings followed the Licchavis in the Kathmandu valley (879 to about 1200) and mostly ruled around Nuwakot and the valley, where Gunakama Deva founded Kantipur (Kathmandu). Some historians dispute the dynasty.

The Malla kings followed.

South Asia's regional kingdoms, 1000–1550

Between the Ghaznavid raids and the Mughal conquest, South Asia was shared by dozens of regional states: the Madurai Sultanate in the Tamil country, the sultanates of Gujarat, Malwa and Khandesh, the Reddi and Velama kingdoms of Andhra, the Gajapatis of Odisha, the Rajput kingdoms of Mewar and Marwar, the Ahom, Chutia, Kamata and Tripura kingdoms of the north-east, the successors of the Chera Perumals on the Malabar coast, and the Sinhala kingdoms of Gampola, Kotte and Kandy. Few medieval sources describe frontiers.
