Throughout the ancient and medieval times, the region now known as Telangana was ruled by many large Hindustani empires such as the Mauryans, Satavahanas, Vishnukundinas, Chalukyas, Cholas, Rashtrakutas, Kakatiyas, Delhi Sultanate, Bahmani Sultanate, Golconda Sultanate. During the 16th and 17th centuries, the region was ruled by the Mughals of India. [13] The region is known for its Ganga-Jamuni tehzeeb culture. [14] During the 18th century with the British Raj, Telangana was ruled by the Nizam of Hyderabad. [15] In 1823, the Nizams lost control of the Northern Circars (Coastal Andhra) and the Ceded (Rayalseema) regions, which were handed over to the East India Company. An appendix made by the British of the Northern Circars deprived Hyderabad State, the Nizam dynasty, of its many coasts, in that of a non-monarchy kingdom with central Deccan territories, bound around British India. After that, the Northern Circuits were ruled as part of the Presidency of Madras until India gained independence in 1947, after which the presidency became Madras India. [16]

Hyderabad joined the Union of India in 1948 after an attack by Indian troops. In 1956, Hyderabad State disintegrated as part of the linguistic reorganization and Telangana merged with the Telugu-speaking Andhra State (part of the President of Madras during the British Raj) formed Andhra Pradesh. A farmers' organization began to promote secession from Andhra Pradesh from the early 1950s, and continued until Telangana was handed over to the government on 2 June 2014 under the leadership of K. Chandrashekar Rao. [17]

Telangana's economy is the seventh largest in India, with a gross domestic product (GSDP) of ₹ 9.78 trillion (US $ 140 billion) and 6th highest GSDP per person at ₹ 227,000 (US $ 3,200). [3] Telangana is ranked 22nd in India in terms of human development. [6] The state has emerged as a strong focus on a strong IT sector, sector and services. The state is also the main administrative center of many Indian defense labs and research labs such as Bharat Dynamics Limited, Defense Metallurgical Research Laboratory, Defense Research and Development Organization and Defense Research and Development Laboratory.

The historic city of Golconda in Hyderabad established itself as a center of the diamond trade and, until the end of the 19th century, the Golconda market was a major source of the finest and largest diamond in the world. Thus, the famous name Golconda Diamonds is exactly the same as Golconda itself. Religious buildings such as Lakshmi Narasimha temple in Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district, Makkah Masjid in Hyderabad, ancient Badrakali Temple and Govinda Rajula Gutta in Warangal, Alampur Jogulamba Temple in Jogulamba Gadwal district and Medak
