 History & Culture
Originally, Chota Nagpur was mostly forest-clad and was ruled by chiefs of various aboriginal tribes.
Though British authority was only gradually established in the plains to the north during the second half of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, occasional revolts against them took place in Chota Nagpur, the most important being the Ho revolt of 1820 to 1827 and the Munda uprising of 1831 to 1832.
Later, Bihar was an important centre of the Indian mutiny and revolt of 1857 to 1859 against British political authority.
