Question
The Jangnama of Shah Mohammad blames one of this empire’s queens for starting a war where it lost the Battle of Sobraon (“SO”-buh-rown). A princess of this empire named Sophia who was raised as a goddaughter of Queen Victoria became a suffragette after witnessing the poverty of her homeland. A teenage ruler of this empire was killed by falling masonry on the day of his father’s funeral, likely assassinated by a Dogra (DOHG-ruh) minister. This empire’s founder unified various (*) misls (“missiles”) and signed an 1806 agreement with the British to keep his boundary at the Sutlej River. That founder of this empire renovated the Harmandir Sahib after capturing Lahore (LA-hore) with his Khalsa Army. For 10 points, name this 19th century empire founded by the “Lion of Punjab (“PUN”-job),” Ranjit (“RUN”-jeet) Singh. ■END■
