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.

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.
