They could not, even if so disposed, have embraced the religion of the Gentiles, because the gentiles of India admit no stranger to the participation of their mysteries. A rebellion, in which the three Georgian slaves united, terminated in the murder of Ram-ras, after which they returned to their respective governments, and usurped the title of Chah, or King. Ram-ras's children, incapable of contending with these men, remained quietly in the country known commonly by the name of the Karnaleck, and called on our maps Bisnaguer, where their posterity are Rajas to this day. The remainder of the Peninsula was split at the same time into all those smaller states still existing, governed by Rajas, Naïques, and other Kinglets. While the three Slaves and their successors preserved a good understanding with each other, they were able to defend their kingdoms, and to wage wars on a large scale against the Mogols; but when the seeds of jealousy were sown among them, and they chose to act as independent sovereigns who stood in no need of foreign assistance, they experienced the fatal effects of disunion. Thirty-five or forty years ago, the Mogol, availing himself of their differences, invaded the dominions of Nejam-Chah, or King Nejam, the fifth or sixth in succession from the first Slave, and made himself master of the whole country. Nejam died a prisoner in Doulat-Abad, his former capital.
