Jandol State
Jandol (also called Jandool or Jandul) was a small Pashtun princely state during the British raj, yet yielded the "Napoleon of the Pathans" Umra Khan.
The Muslim khanate was a minor 'Frontier State' in the colonial Northwest Frontier Province, founded circa 1830. Its capital was a town called Barwa (which has various namesakes in British India).
