Rājputana, meaning Land of the Rajas,[3] was a region in the Indian subcontinent that included mainly the present-day Indian state of Rajasthan, as well as parts of Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat,[3] and some adjoining areas of Sindh in modern-day southern Pakistan.[4]
The main settlements to the west of the Aravalli Hills came to be known as Rajputana, early in the Medieval Period.[5] The name was later adopted by East India Company as the Rajputana Agency for its dependencies in the region of the present-day Indian state of Rājasthān.[6] The Rajputana Agency included 22 Rajput and 6 Jat princely states and two chiefships. This official term remained until its replacement by "Rajasthan" in the constitution of 1949.[6]
