I don't think Prithvi Narayan Shah did some good job. He unified the country by brutally killing many people which many nepalese are still unaware of. Our development process stopped since Shah dynasty. Can anyone tell whether we were even able to maintain our previous devlopment eras like in the period of Licchavis or Mallas? He and his processors completely forget about the country named Nepal and were confined within their palace doing petty politics. Never thought for the country or the people. That's why so many kings were mad. THAT'S WHY PEOPLE IN MANY PARTS OF NEPAL CAN'T ACCEPT THE FACT THAT THEIR DISTRICTS ARE REALLY IN NEPAL. OTHERWISE WHY WOULD THEY CALL SAY "GOING TO NEPAL' FOR 'GOING TO KATHMANDU'. SOMEONE, perhaps in history, really need to stand up and do the analysis. We've got many things except this messy politics going around that is hindering our development process. So Let's not only blame the politics, it's our thinking process, cultures n' beliefs which we're carrying with THAT MIGHT BE THE SOLE CAUSE FOR ALL THE SUFFERING OF OUR NATION.
