Description: (Prithvi Narayan Shah's son)
Prince Bahadur Shah of Nepal served as regent after Queen Rajendra Laxmi's passing. He expanded his father's conquests in the Himalayas but also began a violent practice of beheading court officials, which ultimately led to his downfall. His actions, combined with the political turmoil following his reign, paved the way for Bhimsen Thapa's rise and the Anglo-Nepal War. This period reshaped Nepal's political scene and had enduring effects on the region.
