Kangra

Kangra was a Punjab Hill state ruled from Nagarkot by the Katoch Rajputs. In 1333 Raja Prithvi Chand defeated Muhammad bin Tughluq's army in the hills.

Jahangir starved Nagarkot into surrender in 1620 after a fourteen-month siege, leaving the rajas as vassals. Sansar Chand retook the fort in 1789, but the Gorkhas drove him back in 1806. He surrendered to Ranjit Singh at Jawalamukhi in 1809, and Kangra joined the Sikh Empire.
