Before the unification campaign, Nepal was fragmented into numerous small kingdoms and principalities, often engaged in conflicts and rivalries. The region was characterized by political instability, with local rulers holding power and frequently clashing over territory and influence. This disunity hindered economic development and made the region vulnerable to external threats. The unification campaign, led by King Prithvi Narayan Shah in the 18th century, aimed to consolidate these fragmented states into a single nation.
Before unification in the 18th century, Nepal was divided into several small kingdoms, the most notable being the Malla Kingdoms in the Kathmandu Valley, which included Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, and Patan. Other important regions included the kingdoms of Gorkha, Lamjung, and the various principalities in the Terai region. Each of these kingdoms had its own rulers, cultures, and traditions, contributing to the diverse tapestry of Nepal's history. The unification process was largely led by King Prithvi Narayan Shah, who aimed to consolidate these fragmented states into a single nation.

The word Nepal is derived from Nepa (नेपा:); the old name of Kathmandu valley was Nepa in Nepal Bhasa, the language of Newars, who were the early inhabitants of the valley, long before the unification of Nepal. The fact that Nepal Sambat, one of the three main calendars of Nepal, existed long before the unification of Nepal proves this historical fact.Other toponym theories include: -"Nepal" may be derived from the Sanskrit nipalaya, which means "at the foot of the mountains" or "abode at the foot", a reference to its location in relation to the Himalayas. Thus, it may be an Eastern equivalent of the European toponym "Piedmont."It has also been suggested that the name comes from the Tibetan niyampal, which means "holy land".A third theory suggests that Nepal came from compounding the words NE, which means wool, and PAL, which means a tented house; a long time ago, Nepal used to produce a lot of wool and the houses were used to store the wool - hence the word NE-PAL.The name Nepal is also supposed to be derived from the Sanskrit word "NEP"(नेप), with the suffix "AL" (आल) added to it; though still under controversy, NEP were the people who use to be cow herders - the GOPALS (गोपाल) - who came to the Nepal valley for the first time from the Ganges plain of India.According to Nepali scholar Rishikesh Shaha, the ancient chronicles report that a sage (muni) named Ne became the protector (pāla) of this land and the founder of its first ruling dynasty. The name of the country, Ne-pāla, therefore originally meant the land 'protected by Ne.
No. Nepal is a country on its own. Nepal was never a part of India and has never been colonized by any country. Nepal has a long history of its own. It has retained its sovereignty from very beginning. Actually Indian sub-continent had many small states before colonization by Britain. But it couldn't colonize Nepal. When British left this sub-continent India was united as a republic. Nepal lost its some of its part when India was formed.
