Abstract

This Article highlights Nepal, which has been plagued by problems Since its inception. Its modern history has been characterized by several ideological currents, one of which was the monarchy, which ruled Nepal by a series of hereditary rulers. However, due to the continue wars among them, it was easily invaded by the Gorkha kingdom, led by King Prithvi  Narayan Shah, who controlled the profitable trade route between Tibet and Kathmandu, It is one of the most important objectives of his military campaigns. He became the first king of Nepal. The monarchy has had a central political expression since the creation of the Nepalese nation-state in 1768 with the conquest of the Kathmandu Valley. After Narayan's death, military actions ceased, and Nepal weakened. The Shah's family soon became embroiled in a protracted power struggle, exploited by the Assembly of Lords, which vied for the position of prime minister or regent. They were all heads of important noble families in Gorkha. The conflict culminated in the rise of Jang Bahadur Kunwar in 1846, who introduced a hereditary prime minister ship. Thus, the state apparatus became entrenched in a bureaucratic culture, defined by a system of patronage that mobilized to principles of kinship and sect. One of the main objectives of the article was to examine, the causes and consequences of the invasion of the Kathmandu Valley? and how the Gorkha Empire was established by the Shah family in the 1768? This marked the beginning of a turning point in Nepal's modern history, which would profoundly affect it for years to come. Another major turning point occurred in the mid-nineteenth century, which was the second objective of the study. What were the deteriorating political and public conditions of the Shah's regime? How did they allow Jang Bahadur and his family (the Rana) to establish the "system of hereditary prime ministers" in 1856, and what were the repercussions and effects of this system until Bahadur's death in 1877, the end of the study? This study used historical research methods and a descriptive approach to achieve the research objectives and answer relevant questions, describing events, their causes, effects, and outcomes. Data was collected, interpreted, and analyzed to enable the study to reach conclusions on various issues and aspects.
