Pratap Singh I, also known as Maharana Pratap, who passed away on 19
January, 1597, aged 56, Chawand, was the 13th king of Mewar, which is now part
of the state of Rajasthan in northwestern India. He was recognised for his role
in the Battle of Haldighati and Battle of Dewair and was dubbed as "Mewari
Rana" for his military resistance to the Mughal Empire's expansionism.
