Rana Dynasty

The Rana dynasty (Nepali: राणा शासन Rāņā shāsana) was a Khas dynasty which ruled the Kingdom of Nepal from 1846 until 1951, reducing the Shah monarch to a figurehead and making Prime Minister and other government positions hereditary.

Tyranny, debauchery, economic exploitation and religious persecution characterized Rana rule. This changed in 1951 with the promulgation of a new constitution, when power shifted back to the monarchy of King Tribhuvan. The dynasty is descended from Bal Narsingh Kunwar of Kaski who moved to Gorkha in the early 18th century and entered the service of Raja Nara Bhupal Shah around 1740, and of Bhimsen Thapa (1775–1839), who is counted among the National heroes of Nepal.

Rana Prime Ministers

Nine Rana rulers took the hereditary office of Prime Minister. All were styled (self proclaimed) Maharaja of Lamjung and Kaski.

Don't Go Away

I met you last night, it was really alright
We got along
We partied awhile, you gave me the smile
Nothin' went wrong
Hold me close
Hold me really tight
Go ahead
Make me feel alright
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need to make it
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need
The very next day, you saw us play
It was really a kick
Drippin' in sweat, I got very wet, honey
You did the trick
Hold me close
Hold me really tight
Go ahead
Make me feel alright
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need to make it
Don't go away, I'm so happy

Hold me really tight
Go ahead
Make me feel alright
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need to make it
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need
I stayed the night, it was really alright
I need our heat
I got kinda cold, you got really bold
Ya said, come to me
Hold me close
Hold me really tight
Go ahead
Make me feel alright
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need to make it
