Rana era, (1846–1951) in Nepal, the period during which control of the government lay in the hands of the Rana family. Jung Bahadur (1817–77) seized power in 1846 and made himself permanent prime minister. He was given the hereditary title of Rana. Under the Ranas, Nepal maintained relations with the British, who provided it with support. When the British withdrew from India in 1947, the Rana family was exposed to new dangers. They faced a revolution in 1950, and in 1951, under pressure from India, Nepal’s King Tribhuvan took the throne with restored sovereignty.
The ships that <span>carried cannons and attacked British shipping were called "privateers" and this was a way for a nation to both protect its shores and to gain extra revenue. </span>
I mean for many of the survivors, it was hard to rebuild after enduring such a tragic moment. Seeing so many friends, people, and family perish in front of their eyes at the thousands :(
