The term "Indian Nobility" refers to the class of aristocrats and landowners in India who held significant power and influence, particularly during the Mughal Empire and later under British colonial rule. These nobles, often called rajas or maharajas, governed large territories and were responsible for local administration, military leadership, and cultural patronage. Indian nobility played a crucial role in the social and political landscape of the country. They were known for their lavish lifestyles, elaborate palaces, and contributions to art and architecture, including the construction of iconic structures like Hawa Mahal and Mysore Palace. Their legacy continues to influence modern Indian culture and heritage.
