Nepal's 1815 Sugauli Treaty and the Lion of Gorkha Returns
In this episode, Lucas and Luna revisit the 1815 Treaty of Sugauli, which ended the Anglo-Nepal War and reshaped Nepal's borders, but they focus on a different hero: the legendary commander Amar Singh Thapa. While earlier episodes covered the war's battles and the treaty's terms, this conversation dives into Thapa's final stand at Malaun, his death, and the disputed legacy of his leadership. They discuss the Nepali concept of 'chhap' (honor), the warrior's refusal to surrender, and how his legend lives on in Nepali folklore. The episode also touches on the British perspective and the strategic miscalculations on both sides. A fresh look at a familiar event through the eyes of a man who became a symbol of resistance.
