Baise Rajya

Baise Rajya (बाइसे राज्यहरू) were sovereign and intermittently allied petty kingdoms on the Indian subcontinent, ruled by Khasas from medieval Nepal, located around the Karnali-Bheri river basin of modern-day Nepal. The Baise were annexed during the unification of Nepal from 1744 to 1810. The Gorkha kingdom's founder Prithvi Narayan Shah (r. 1743–1775) did not live to see this, but his son and grandson annexed the entire collection by the end of the 18th century.

The 22 principalities were Jumla, Doti, Jajarkot, Bajura, Gajur, Malneta, Thalahara, Dailekh District, Dullu, Duryal, Dang, Sallyana, Chilli, House of Tulsipur, Darnar, Atbis Gotam, Majal, Gurnakot, and Rukum. These Baise states were ruled by Khasas and several decentralized tribal polities.

A parallel confederation of 24 principalities Chaubisi rajya (चौबिसी राज्य) occupied most of the Gandaki basin east of the Baisi.
