The native states of India, also known as feudatory or princely states, were typically vassals under a local or regional ruler who owed allegiance to the British Raj. There were about 675 native states in all but many were not parts of British India proper because they never become possessions of the British Crown; rather, they were tied to it in a system of subsidiary alliances. Following the Partition of India in 1947, the suzerainty of the Raj was terminated and native states had to choose between independence or formal accession by either India or Pakistan. In practice, all of the native states had acceded or been annexed by the end of 1949.

  • Die Postgeschichte der indischen Fürstenstaaten umfasst einen Zeitraum von 1864 bis zum 1. April 1950, als alle noch bestehenden Postdienste der Fürstenstaaten geschlossen wurden oder in die indische Post übergingen. Von den 565 Fürstenstaaten, die bei der Unabhängigkeit Indiens von Großbritannien existierten, betrieben eine große Zahl Postdienste für Dienstpost zwischen den Behörden, aber nur eine kleine Zahl einen Postdienst in eigener Regie für die Einwohner. Von wenigen Ausnahmen abgesehen, waren die Briefmarken und Ganzsachen nur innerhalb der Grenzen des jeweiligen Fürstenstaates für den Postverkehr gültig. Postsendungen über dessen Grenzen hinaus, mussten mit Marken der britisch-indischen Post oder ab 1947 mit indischen Briefmarken freigemacht werden. (de)

  • Туземные княжества Индии, также известные как феодальные княжества, обычно были вассалами местного или регионального правителя, который присягнул на верность Британской Индии. Всего существовало около 675 местных княжеств, но многие из них не входили в состав собственно Британской Индии, потому что никогда не становились владениями Британской короны: скорее, они были связаны с ней системой субсидиарных договоров. После раздела Британской Индии в 1947 году сюзеренитет Британской Индии был прекращён, и туземным княжествам пришлось выбирать между независимостью или формальным присоединением к Индии или Пакистану. На практике к концу 1949 года все туземные княжества присоединились или были аннексированы. (ru)
