The Bháraþíj Sámrázj (Indian Empire), also known simply as Sámrázj (Empire), is the largest country of India. It was earlier known as Maráthá Sámrázj until it was transformed into a representative democracy in 1948. The last Maráthá Adhiráz passed away in 1962 leaving no heir, but the Sámrázj was preserved for historical reasons in spite of the campaign by the political Left to rename the country Bháraþíj Zanatá (Indian Commonwealth), not least since the Prime Minister referred to the currency of the term Samrajz in English.
