Topic Ideology

The Jaintia Kingdom was a kingdom in some parts of present-day Bangladesh's Sylhet Division and India's Meghalaya state. It was partitioned into three in 630 AD by Raja Guhak for his three sons, into the Jaintia Kingdom, Gour Kingdom and Laur Kingdom. It was annexed by the British East India Company in 1835. All the Pnar Rajahs of the Jaintia Kingdom are from the Syiem Sutnga clan, which is from a Pnar tribe which claims descent from Ka Li Dohkha, a divine nymph.
