Andhra State (IAST: Āndhra Stēt; IPA: [ˈɑːndʰrʌ steɪt]) was a state in India created in 1953 from the Telugu-speaking northern districts of Madras State.[1] The state was made up of this two distinct cultural regions – Rayalaseema and Coastal Andhra. Andhra State did not include all Telugu-speaking areas, as it excluded some in Hyderabad State. Under the State Reorganisation Act of 1956, Andhra State was merged with the Telugu-speaking regions of Hyderabad State to form Andhra Pradesh.
