Nairs are Kshatriyas of kerala, all the royal houses and 90% of militias were from them,they are the first native warriors who defeated a Europian naval force (kulachal war against Dutch East India Company) They fought against all the invaders like the Portugese who failed to get a hold in kerala and later they moved to Goa, English also got stiff opposition from nairs under the leadership of Pazhasi Raja, Veluthampi Dalava, Paliyathu Achan etc. Their main Kingdom of Travancore was never surrendered to any colonial power. The British through deceit tried to dispocess their powers by influencing the kings but was never able to annex Travancore to British India.

Which cast was nair?
Nair was considered to be a Brahmin caste but to Parshuram they were considered to be kshatriya. However, they do not belong to any Caste system as we know in Aryanism. Nairs are a dravidian tribe who got aryanised to a certain extent with advent of Brahmins in Kerala. Considering their stature, martial history and nobility the caste division of khastriya would be the most appropriate that they will fit in to.
