Bahadur Shah II

Japanese: バハードゥル・シャー[2世](英語表記)Bahādur Shāh II
Bahadur Shah II
1775‐1862
The last emperor of the Mughal Empire in India. Reigned 1837-58. Like his predecessor, he lived on a pension from the British East India Company and had no real imperial powers. In 1857, during the Indian Mutiny (Sepoy Mutiny), he was supported as emperor by the rebels and declared himself restored to power, but the following year he was arrested by the British and dethroned. He was exiled to Rangoon in Burma, where he died. With his abdication, the Mughal Empire was destroyed in both name and reality, and Britain began to rule India directly.

インド,ムガル帝国最後の皇帝。在位1837‐58年。前皇帝と同様,イギリス東インド会社からの年金で暮らしており,事実上皇帝としての権限を何ももっていなかった。1857年,インド大反乱(セポイの反乱)の際に反乱軍側から皇帝に擁立されて復権宣言を行ったが,翌年イギリス側に逮捕され皇帝位を追われた。ビルマのラングーンに流刑され,その地で死去した。彼の退位によりムガル帝国は名実ともに滅び,イギリス本国はインド直接統治に乗り出した。
