Travancore

A kingdom that existed in the South-Western coast of India (Present day Kerala) from 1729 to 1949. Became a powerful kingdom in the late medieval era under king Marthanda Varma. It expanded to include most of south Kerala under its control but ultimately fell prey to British Eat India Company's subsidiary alliance and its rulers were forced to lick the boots of British Empire. As a princely state its rulers led several key socio-economic reforms such as building schools and allowing women to go to colleges, allowing all castes to visit temples, forming a new legislative assembly etc. later merged with the Indian Union in 1949.

M.K Stalin

Someone who is typically stupid , has low IQ and wears a cheap 2 $ wig and says that it's a costly 'hairdo'
And this kind of person is typically illiterate, you can say that this person is a dirt sandwich
You may shocked to hear that this 'Someone' , is the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu (A state in India).
This is the kind of person , who brings foreign investors to a state already with a lot of investments,
This is the kind of person who opens liquor shops and calls it as social change.
This is the kind of person that licks off India's Central Government state funds for personal expenses.
This is the kind of person that makes corrupt legislators as state cabinet ministers.
This is the kind of person that shamelessly loots state coffers for buying Land Rover SUVs for itself.
This kind of person is a shameless ogre.

Hey that dumb mutt M.K Stalin looted 20,000 Rupees from my bank account in the name of property tax.

Pudukkottai

Pudukkottai - as of now 2024 it is a rusty looking place with small shanties and a fort in the outskirts. In the past, i.e. 75 years back it was a princely state ruled by a king who held the title of 'Tondaiman' and claimed to be a descendant of the Pallava dynasty of ancient times - (this claim is false, the first king of Pudukkottai Avudaiyappa , took on the title of Tondaiman in 1639 C.E, Avudaiyappa was an ordinary soldier in the Vijayanagara empire's army. This princely state established by Avudaiyappa was a rather small one sandwiched between the British districts of Tanjore and Madura respectively. The rulers of this kingdom supported the British East India Company in the 18th century. They helped the British in capturing Veerapandiya Kattabomman - "The Lion of Panchalankurichi" in 1799 C.E. This princely state suffered a lot of famines in the late 19th century, with the rulers themselves not caring about it while many of the inhabitants had to suffer a lot, while its rulers lived in the Pudukkottai palace in luxury. As usual the case with all princely states of India. This state joined the Indian Union in 1948 after many years of enjoying luxurious lives in the palace.

Suresh Muniyandi (farmer in Pudukkottai): "That fat jerk Tondaiman is torturing me for not paying the farm tax, my crops are rotting, and I struggle to feed myself and my family and that fat buffoon wants the tax, let him eat my rotten weeds for lunch!!!"

Virasami ( Tondaiman's Patrol Guard): "Hey you, how dare speak llike that! , you dare to question the Tondaiman's divine right, you shall be whipped for this.!"
