Answer:

Maratha, a major people of India, famed in history as yeoman warriors and champions of Hinduism. Their homeland is the present state of Maharashtra, the Marathi-speaking region that extends from Mumbai (Bombay) to Goa along the west coast of India and inland about 100 miles (160 km) east of Nagpur.

One of them, Maharaja Ranjit Singh, reunited these groups and established his capital at Lahore in 1799. The Maratha kingdom was another powerful regional kingdom to arise out of a sustained opposition to Mughal rule.
