Nearly 5 years after his death, the king is still alive, and he is still calling on his compatriots to try to restore the motherland. Who is he?

The emperor guards the country and the king dies! Throughout the history of the world, the fall of each dynasty represents the rise of another dynasty, and it is often difficult for the fallen party to make a comeback. For example, after Zhu Youjian, the Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, invaded Beijing in Li Zicheng, he personally hacked his two daughters, ordered his harem concubines to commit suicide, and then he and eunuch Wang Chengen fled to jingshan park and hanged themselves.

However, there is a country that has been destroyed for nearly 5 years, but the king is still calling on his compatriots to try to restore his country. This country is the Kingdom of Sikkim (now Sikkim), which was once one of our vassal countries.

Becoming a vassal state of China

In p>1788, when the Nepali War broke out, Nepalese troops invaded Sikkim. Knowing that they were defeated, King Sikkim fled across the border to Tibet for help from Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. At the cost, King Sikkim promised to become a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty voluntarily after pacifying the war.

For this reason, Qianlong used troops twice. Finally, in 1791, he drove all Nepalese Gurkha troops out of Sikkim and chased them across the border to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. Since then, Sikkim Kingdom has become a vassal state of China.

After many twists and turns, Sikkim Kingdom was ruled by Britain and India successively

However, with the decline of Qing Dynasty, Sikkim Kingdom was once a British colony. In 1887, Britain occupied Sikkim and sent commissioners to station it. However, in the face of British aggression, the Qing government just gave in and compromised blindly.

On March 17th, 189, under the pressure of Britain, the Qing Dynasty signed the Sino-British Tibet-India Treaty with Britain. Its main contents are: Britain will replace the Qing Dynasty as the protectorate of Sikkim, and demarcate the border between China, Tibet and Sikkim. As for the nomadism and trade between the two sides, we will discuss it later.

In p>1947, India became independent and inherited Britain's position in Sikkim. In June 1949, it sent troops to Sikkim in the name of "preventing unrest and bloodshed" and took over the Sikkim government. In 195, in order to better control Sikkim, India forced King Palden of Sikkim to sign the "Indian Sikkim Peace Treaty", which stipulated that the Sikkim royal family enjoyed autonomy in internal affairs, and all other sovereignty was controlled by India. The signing of this treaty also marks that the Sikkim Kingdom exists in name only.

To be the monarch of national subjugation, and to strive for the rejuvenation of the country

In p>1975, the Indian army staged a coup and put Palden, King of Sikkim, under house arrest. In April of the same year, the Sikkim Parliament passed a resolution to abolish the king and the constitutional monarchy, and agreed that Sikkim would become a state of India. Since then, the Sikkim kingdom has ceased to exist, but the Sikkim royal family is still working hard to restore the country.

Among them, Palden, the 12th king of Sikkim Kingdom, made the greatest efforts. After Palden became the king of national subjugation, he constantly accused the Indian illegal invasion in the international community, hoping to get international help to revive Sikkim, but no one was willing to lend a helping hand. Therefore, Palden died of depression and died in new york, USA in 1982. However, before his death, Palden passed the throne to his eldest son, wangchuck Tengxin, to keep him going and called him the 13th king of Sikkim.

Today, Tengxin is still calling on the people in the United States to get their support and restore the former "glory" of Sikkim Kingdom, but no one has responded to his call. In fact, the restoration of Sikkim Kingdom is hopeless.

The kingdom of Sikkim has a small population. After it became a British colony, Britain even let a large number of Nepalese immigrate to Sikkim, resulting in the fact that most of the residents in Sikkim today are Nepalese, and the Sikkim people, who used to be the majority, have become a minority. How can stable Nepalese residents support him to launch a rebellion? Let alone support his rejuvenation.
