[edit] Sikh Confederacy and Sikh Empire, 2 separate things

The Sikh Confederacy was a collection of independent sovereign Sikh states whereas the formal Sikh Empire -one sovereign Sikh state under the Command of Ranjit Singh. They are two separate things. The situation, 1792AD+, is similar to China Warring States Period. 1792AD+ where one of the Kings of the states starts to conquered the other states and combine them into a single new state under his sole sovereign command, process complete on 1801 April with his coronation and official recognisation.--Sikh scholar 15:15, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sikh Conferate Empire

I added this section originally to highlight the military & economic power change after 1762AD. However, this I inputted into the Sikh Empire article but it clearly belongs in the Sikh Confederacy because the polictical strucure of the Sikh Confederacy was still active and in play. The formal Sikh Empire did not exist then (only existed in 1801).--Sikh scholar 15:15, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article to be merged with Sikh Empire

This is original research. A search on google didnt give any results on Sikh confederacy. This article should be merged with Sikh Empire and the resultant article should be appropriately named and divided into two sections, one dealing with the various Sikh kingdoms and one with the Empire. I will do it in a day or two. --N aamdar Saheb|talk to your Saab 12:58, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
