In summary, a man whose smile is natural and has a ready twinkle in his eyes is attractive, no matter his age. What a generous person, my dear lorinda, to post such a good post! My dear warhorse, you have never been so gurkha.huh? Gurkhawarhorse-sounds like some fierce warrior who knows how to ride a mighty steed. Perhaps I'm wrong, though..Since arildno told us he's gay, is he trying to come on to everybody? Or is it just me?

It is so fun to induce panic reactions in straight men; can't say that counts as come-ons, though.

I can't; I live too far south.

doesnt matter because gurkha is just the wrong english pronounciation. it actually gorkhali (people) of the country gorkha. gorkhali was too hard so gorkha became popular, and then came gurkha. now people think gorkha means keeper of the cows, wtf, wtf, wtf.
present nepal is the expanded form of gorkha empire. it became 150 times its own size!
anglo nepal war and there was a treaty nepal lost land like germany in ww1. the impressed british called my ancestors to join them in their world conquering mission. they went and still go.

Interesting!
Was the Gorkhali Empire originally centered about Katmandu (present day capital of Nepal, I think..), or is that part of the region subjugated by the gorkhali?

gurkhawarhorse, many reguards to your, bro such a fine army and brave men.
 
  • #24
no,


well, the king of gorkha. P.N. Shah, was actually trying to conquer kathmandu valley but he knew it was hard to defeat the 3 countries there (they were as a whole called nepal so that is why we call ourselves gorkhali but our country is named nepal). so he went by conquering smaller ones to increase power and isolated ktm valley and defeated it after 3 wars.
his second son kept on going and nepal emerged.

How many professional gurkhas are serving in the British army today?
Are they chosen from ex-patriate Nepalese families living in the UK, or is there some sort of contests back in Nepal from which the toughest ones (say, the winners) are awarded the opportunity of serving for the British?
 
  • #26
nearly 50 % of all soldiers in the anglo-nepal war did suicide 25 % became sages left everything and went to forent to pray to god, remaining some went to be gurkha but now many go because of the money they get. u must have guessed we r geeedy lol.

Were the gorkhali originally a mountain tribe, then, (nomads, perhaps?) who extended their influence down into the valleys?

no, not nomads but mountain tribe indeed

We still have a beautiful late summer here in Norway; I hope everyone else has equally nice weather as we are having right now! :smile:

Here in Finland the temperature is high for the season, the sun is shining and there are very little signs of autumn. In addition, I only have two boxes left to unpack in my new flat. This is already starting to look like a home! :smile:
