Dungarpur is the seat of elder branch of Sisodiyas of Udaipur, while the younger branch is the seat of the Maharana of Mewar.
History
Dungarpur State was founded in 1177 by Samant Singh, the eldest son of the ruler of Mewar, Karan Singh. They are descendants of Bappa Rawal, eighth ruler of the Guhilot Dynasty and founder of the Mewar Dynasty (r. 734-753).
The chiefs of the state, who bear the title of Maharawal, are descended from Mahup, eldest son of Karan Singh, chief of Mewar in the 12th century, and claim the honours of the elder line of Mewar. Mahup, disinherited by his father, took refuge with his mother's family, the Chauhans of Bagar, and made himself master of that country at the expense of the Bhil chiefs, while his younger brother Rahup founded a separate Sisodia dynasty.
Originally, the maharawals had their capital at Baroda. A Sanskrit inscription dated to April 1287 identifies the ruler Vīrasiṃhadeva as the mahārājakula (the Sanskrit form of "maharawal") of Vaṭapadraka (the Sanskrit name for Baroda). This inscription, the earliest known of Vīrasiṃhadeva, records him granting land "for the spiritual welfare of" his predecessor Devapāladeva (who is also known as Dedā or Dedu). The last dated inscription of Vīrasiṃhadeva is from 1302. Baroda remained the capital until the time of his grandson Ḍuṅgarasiṃha, who founded the city of Dungarpur, which was named after him.: 192–3
The town of Dungarpur, the capital of the state, is traditionally held to have been founded in 1282 CE by Rawal Vir Singh, who named it after Dungaria, an independent Bhil chieftain whom he had caused to be assassinated. After the death of Rawal Udai Singh of Vagad at the Battle of Khanwa in 1527, where he fought alongside Rana Sanga against Babur, his territories were divided into the states of Dungarpur and Banswara. Udai's elder son Prithviraj succeeded his father as the rawal of Dungarpur and his younger son Jagmal became the first ruler of Banswara. Rawal Askaran accepted Mughal Suzerainty and became a vassal of Mughal Empire It remained successively under Mughal, Maratha, and British Raj control by treaty in 1818, where it remained 15-gun salute state The revenue of the state was Rs.2,00,000 in 1901.
