Nizam (Mir Osman Ali Pasha)

Mir Osman Ali Pasha was the last Nizam of Hyderabad, a princely state in India, ruling from 1911 to 1948. As a monarch, he held significant political and administrative authority, overseeing a wealthy and culturally rich region. His reign was marked by modernization efforts, including developments in education, infrastructure, and industry. However, his rule ended when Hyderabad was integrated into the newly independent India in 1948, ending centuries of princely rule. He is remembered as a prominent regional leader who navigated complex colonial and post-colonial transitions, shaping the history of southern India.
