History
Pre-First Scinfaxi War
Sikhs on Earth had been concentrated in the Punjab region of South Asia since the founding of Sikhism during the 15th century CE. Before the region's conquest by the British, Punjab had been ruled by the confederacy of Sikh Misls in the 18th century, and a Sikh empire in the first half of the 19th century. The Misls ruled over the eastern Punjab from 1733 to 1799, until their confederacy was unified into a Sikh Empire by Maharajah Ranjit Singh from 1799 to 1849. At the end of the Second Anglo-Sikh War in 1849, the Sikh Empire was dissolved into separate princely states and the British province of Punjab. As the British rule of India began to near its end in the 1930s, Sikhs began to make their first calls for a Sikh homeland.
