India is often referred to as the “Land of Kings and Queens” and there exists sufficient historical evidence to testify this.

The monarchy system in the Indian sub-continent, guarded by the Himalayas in the north and sprayed by the seawater on the other sides, is said to be more than 3,000 years old.

They enjoyed a semi-independent status and displayed an eye-catching lavish lifestyle filled with pomp and grandeur.
