Until the 19th century, the Gorkhali referred to their country as "Khas Desh" (Khas country). As they annexed the various neighboring countries (such as Newar of the Newar people) to the Gorkha kingdom, the terms such as "Khas" and "Newar" ceased to be used as the names of countries. The 1854 legal code ("Muluki Ain"), promulgated by the Nepali Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana, himself a Khas, no longer referred to "Khas" as a country, rather as a "jāt" (species or community) within the Gorkha kingdom.
