The Magnificent History Of Bhutan's Royal Family | Asia's Monarchies | Real Royalty
Bhutan's governing party pledged recently to follow the policies of the absolute monarchy it is replacing, after it won a landslide in the country's first parliamentary elections. This remote, beautiful country truly is in the throes of a noble experiment. What makes this experiment unique is that this move towards democracy has been initiated by the ruling monarch himself.
From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.

I am never ashamed to call myself a Bhutanese no matter which part of the world I live. I always count it as my biggest blessing to be born in such a paradise like Bhutan where even if a subject is down with flu, the king will come with medicines. If your job gets laid off, the king will give you salary. If you are not able to pay off your loan, the king will pay it for you. If you are stuck in another country due to the pandemic and cannot afford the medical bills, , the king will rent a flat for you to quarantine yourself. If you are inside the county and needs quarantine , he books your stay in all the luxury hotels with the best food and full wifi.. I mean I can’t even count the blessings.

Will be difficult for those people who can't trust their government or politician. You don't know the feeling of security that a benevolent leader provides.
What have ur King done to those Nepalese? What If that time nepal king command his ghurka army to attack ur Bhutan .. now there will be no Bhutan in map.. soo keep ur proudness upto you .. don't disgrace other countries.. cause we don't care mf 😂
A country where the king understood democracy more than his people. God bless this land and her people.

This is all due to farsightedness of our Beloved Kings. Long live thier Majesties🙏🙏 Thank you for the vidoe 🙏🇧🇹
@Very Good LMFAO!!! twisting information. I see what you did there, falsely spreading info about the 500 mob which I gave in another comment when they are only a size of what? 100th of the wider lllegal immigrants and anti-nationals trying to overthrow the government.
@Very Good During the 18th and 19th century Bhutan's population was only around 100,000 so suddenly during the 20th century how did population in southern Bhutan increase drastically? Also during the invasion of British India in 1864, the troops defending Bhutan were from western and eastern Bhutan as there wasn't much people living in southern Bhutan. Historically there is proof that massive immigration happened during the 1900s which led to massive population in southern Bhutan.
@Very Good "Wait until some crazy Lhosampa will start a protest or vandalism.....", No wonder your kind got kicked out, expecting another individual to commit the same vile act as you lot did. The truth = Dissidents falsely spread information to innocents stating that the government was trying to erase their culture, tradition and identity to gain support for their own agendas, even forcing those who didn't want to participate in their activities otherwise threaten them with their heads on stakes including their own.
You mean after all your human rights atrocities towards the people of Nepali origin? Yeah, I bet you are happy after stealing all their property and all the taxes they paid during their lives. Beloved king my arse.
I’m going to live there forever soooooo beautiful country and beautiful people
I love everything about this Country Bhutan! I have been there three times. The people are so humble and polite, they all actually look happy and content in life. All the major small towns including the capital city Thimpu is maintained so clean. What a beautiful country 👌👌 .

I always wanted to visit bhutan but never got chance and Bhutanese people are so kind and lovely, it's the most peaceful nation in asia, in my college days all my friends were Bhutanese eventhough I can't speak dzonkha and can't understand it but felt more Bhutanese with them 😅 when you are with Bhutanese the only thing matters is happiness 😊 love from India and bhutan is the pride of our indian subcontinent long live the king. ❤💙
@Bhutan did Ethnic cleansing of Hindus Bhutan would have been just another hotbed for lllegal immigrants and anti-nationals to thrive in if those dissidents weren't kicked out. They would've for sure destroyed the turned the place into a dump.
@Bhutan did Ethnic cleansing of Hindus I know you are ignorant bigot using hindu as scapegoat for your propaganda and I myself a hindu don't support your views, bhutan is a sovereign country and it is free to conduct its own affairs btw I know those people were from nepal 🇳🇵so it's nepali government issue.
@Bhutan did Ethnic cleansing of Hindus It's not like you see Bhutan's government and king as being portrayed as cruel dictators and rulers in media and real life. Oh wait! you don't because they aren't. You're an embarrassment to Hinduism and Hindus considering what you're doing is in complete contrast to your religion's teachings. Honestly, just come out with it and accept you're one of those individuals who've been using religion as nothing but a means to further your own propaganda. No different from the colonizers that used their own religion to justify their actions I say. Pity you that while the world has or is moving on from such acts, there seem to be some still stuck with that kind of mentality. You belonging to the latter, sad!

@@dharbram6702 i have a friend from Bhutan. Her features are more of Nepalese/Indian so you wouldn't know she's from Bhutan unless she tells you. She said her family was originally from Nepal and she grew up in the countryside (most likely in the south) before moving to the capital shere she lives now. Before watching this video, I didn't know about the rebellion by ethnic Nepalese people and the crack down by the government. All I remember her telling me was that her king is so handsome and wise and that she'll fight and die for him if she needs to. At that time, 2004, I suppose she was referring to the 4th king (in my mind, at that time, I was imagining an old, bald, fat king and it amused me that she was so devoted to a king, haha). She was proud to wear her traditional Bhutanese dress whenever she got the chance. She was a highly intelligent young woman who won a scholarship to study abroad and that's how I met her.. Now, I understand where she's coming from..

This country, I must say, is a good example for everyone to see. Sure, they also had their issues. Their leaders have also faced problems along with their ways, but what amazed me is how they were able to lead their people in an inclusive manner. Man, just look at how their people love their leader! It only shows how much they respect and honor them. And, for your people to actually adore you that much, you must really be good in many ways. Bhutan's system may have changed, but their leader's goal and dedication to his people are still very evident. Truly, in order to make your country flourish, everyone must be involved. The success of your land cannot only be determined by one mind but a whole nation. I wish nothing but the best for this small nation. I hope I can visit this beautiful and calm place once everything becomes better.

The king of Bhutan will “like “your commitment.
Mm, Buthan drove brutally out all their citizens they did not want. Happy country. I would like to drive also all our citizens out, l do not like. We would be also a happy country to me, but l would like to hear the outcry of the world. I don’t see happiness on many faces of this secluded, isolated country, where they work very hard long hours to make a living. The poor little monk boys, who do not live with their families for various reasons, like poverty, orphaned, and so on do not look happy, either did they look happy in Tibet. But to live without all the rubbish, and environmental disasters we “Westerners” produce has something very appealing. Everything has its price. I am not saying, the people of this country might not be satisfied with their lives, but to idealise living conditions in poor countries is not right either. Even in our high-tech society we can make own decisions not to participate in outrageous consumption, and live a fulfilling life, if we choose to do so. No need to worship other countries living conditions. Thank you.
@@judykraska400 My you don't seem to have learned anything from my previous reply in another video. You really are ignorant.
@Nosy ethnic cleansing? or rather cleansing of threat to the sovereignty of a small kingdom that has been doing whatever it can to preserve it's independence. If it was ethnic cleansing indeed, why do several ethinicities still coexist peacefully there with equal excess to everything. Why just a bunch. A small country like Bhutan cannot afford to be divided from within especially when there are several threats from outside. The rulers have fought to unify the country and a bunch of immigrants revolts against the very idea of unity that has played a major role in its sovereignty ; politics isn't always about roses. A king had to do what he could at that time to keep the country standing.

@@bibhutikoirala5836 I also wish the Nepali royal family were still around...Dipendra or any other theory, who cares, they didn't deserve to die. and your Prince Hridayendra is really cute.
Wonderful docu about a wonderful kingdom.i sure hope to be able to visit it someday !!! Greetings from another small mountainous country: Switzerland !
This was very informative. :-)
Awsm vdo.....loved it......love to all my Bhutanese buddies from India.
I love bhutan's way of life. And I'm proud that I'm doing it right now. Being self-sufficient, their concept of Gross national happiness and the respect they showed towards environment and their own cows..
Thanks but only cow? Haha
Sure Bhutan had it's own fair dark parts in it's history but it will never change the fact that what Bhutan is today, is all thanks to what the monarchs had actually invested in. We know the truth, we know our dark history and we have learned to embrace it and we have learned from it. 🙏 And I hope people who are commenting on the nepalis issue would really do the fact check and not just judge based on the stuff you get on Wikipedia or just one video and webpage. Let's be a bit smart and media educated ✌
Nobody tolarets ethnic cleansing anymore bruh. Doing it in the name of saving culture, actually it was way of staying in power for the wangchuk elites, not saving culture or sovereignty as many bhutanese are claiming. There are so many countries like bhutan who have several ethnicities and those countries exists, even next to big country. Also about protest of lhotsampas, it happened because u guys suppressed their identity, if government had given them equal representation, it wouldn't happen, but king was there in the quest to maintain his power no matter what.
What happened to Lhotsampas was literally textbook example of ethnic cleansing, it is even mentioned in Maryland university, population geography subject on refugee and ethnic cleansing as an example.
@@wonderfullife737 Wrong, a user already argued with you on this that they're "lllegal immigrants and anti-nationals" which they are.
@@noonecares6383 that user is yourself with different account now. 😂😂 paid agent of Jigme singye to defend his bad deeds. going aginst tsa wa sum(king, country and people) is considered anti national act in bhutan, king is smart to add "King" in that list lol so that there won't be any criticism of king even if king has done some nasty deeds, you guys either stay quiet or defend and say it was the best decision lol because you can't criticize the human being so called "king" in anyway. he is a human being capable of making mistakes, he has made many mistakes, but you guys are obligated to never criticize him due to tsa wa sum bullshit. king should be removed from tsa wa sum, its only country and people, if bhutan is real democrasy and freedom fo speech, otherwise democrasy is a joke in bhutan, freedom of speech is also a joke in bhutan
@@wonderfullife737 Lmfao! 😂 what the hell? where did this accusation come from? we don't revere the kings out of fear or blind loyalty as falsely, ignorantly stated by your short sighted views. No need to state facts captain obvious, even the most wisest of ones make mistakes but it sure wasn't one to thwart the plans of those terrorists. Bhutan is a constitutional monarchy which transitioned from an absolute one(which it was even before the arrival of those terrorists) but I can see how that went over your head with such a mindset 😂 It's understandable how your kind would think that after all you are from a race where their own royal family was gunned down by a family member, pathetic! There was never any mention about the king in my comment above yet you brought that up our of nowhere, why? simple, because you've been keeping those thoughts inside for so long that you finally let loose. Anymore bottled up thoughts you want to release or keep it inside in an unhealthy manner? I find it absolutely hilarious that the only reason you and the rest of you lot even have the privilege to be posting bs online is due to the grace of some individuals fearing their position on the international stage decided to brand you all as what you are presently, otherwise your situation is a joke! your whole life up to this point is a joke!
what a documentary! thanks real royalty
There are various issues with the documentary in the 1st half. Some of the major points are below. 1)The documentary skipped the history of the entire 19th century and introduced British only in the 20th century. This is a huge skip of more than 100 years. 19th century history of Bhutan is as important as 20th century in leading towards the creation of monarchy. 2) The British and their struiggle with Bhutan during 18th and 19th century was omitted. It is to be noted that British India annexed many contested regions of Bhutan by the end of 19th century, in the course making Bhutan wearker in economic resources and politically. 3) Before the monarchy was established, Bhutan was ruled by Dev Raja and Dharma Raja and those posts were of political and religious stature and both were not hereditary. This part of history seems to be ignored. 4) Bhutanese civil war is too simplified in the documentary while it wasnt as simple as it is shown. The points i've mentioned above are just few among the many that needs to be discussed. Though I can understand that there is crunch of limited time but then a short description might have been sufficient. But i need to point out that there is a clear omission of many important historical events in the documentary. Therefore, the documentary can be concluded as weak and it reflects a narrative which is selective and biased. Regards.
This was intentional. I thought I was the only one who can always pick up the hints of jealousy from the narrators. It’s called the Eurocentric perspective 🙂
Completely omitted the 2003 operation all out war against the illegal ULFA militants which is HM 4ths greatest contribution to the survival of Bhutan
This video goes really too deep into real Bhutanese story. But one thing I want to contribute to it was when the 4th king became king in his 17, the threat wasn't from China, it was actually from India. When Sikim was annexed by India around 1970s, it was real threat within that Bhutan could be next. That's the reason the govt tried to integrate Nepali as one people so Indian govt cannot do what they did to Sikim. (Pls refer how Sikim was annexed for more info) You have already gone so deep so I'm just contributing to it.
The decision was met with public unrest and a lot of disputes and cry for peace, before the final annexation of Sikkim by India. On 14 April 1975, a referendum was held, in which Sikkim voted to merge with India. Sikkim became the 22nd Indian State and on 16 May 1975, and Sikkim officially became an Indian state. real threat is China who annexed Tibet and His Holiness Dalai lama had to take refugee in India and India welcome them with thousands of Tibet Refugees who are peacefully Living in India. Sikkim annex by India with referendum Of people, They chose to be merge with India and India take responsibility to defend Bhutan In case of Any military threat From China
I've always admire the last King humility matter a fact all of their leaders. They are a true Servant of the people, thats a true character of a leader. 🙏❤💙💚
I am glad I was born in northeast assam I am so grateful Bhutan is really a nice place it's not far from where I live the place is wonderful
This is a very educated culture, in terms of thinking, speaking, communicating. Real level of sophistication
It's truly a utopia on earth, a fine blending of human inhabitants and nature.
@Nosy when curing an infected wound, there's always someone complaining about killing the bacteria.
@Nosy I am neither a Buddhist or a believer of any religious creed, keep that moralistic ethic to yourself, I am just being pragmatic.
@Nosy when a thing is beautiful, it is beautiful. What makes you think only you can talk about it.
@Nosy those rhetoric and hypocrisy of yours, are rather amusing
@Nosy I edited it, cos I missed your barking 🤣🤣
Bhutan is a paradise on earth... We in India hope that this kind of peace and tranquility might prevail in our country one day...
No way that can happen by these politicians .. we too need an emperor
I too wish that but sometimes looking at how trivial matters can cause deaths in the country I loose all hope
I think India is a spiritual paradise. Don't forget your culture and thousands of years of wisdom. India, specially Indian culture of consciousness and awakening will be relevent very soon in a big way so don't lose hope🤗

They have the most gorgeous monarchs.

"Happy kingdom" of the Himalayan, they are superb. Love from India for Jigme Namgyel Wangchuck a 5-year old prince.
Did you actually watch the documentary? The dark side?
India ko government le chains le jastai Garza mauka oaye nepal India Lai capture garna ber laudaina. Lamba nadeu
@@slimturnpike everything in this world has a dark side dear.
@@matcha359 of course and that's why it's so bizarre commentators are treating this video as a hagiopgraphy, which it's not. Bhutan's monarchy hasn't been entirely benevolent, and even when that's pointed out, it's neatly swept under the carpet. I just find the synchophancy amusing, my dear.
I wouldn't call my country happy kingdom especially in this world
I watched this channel's documentaries both on Nepalese and Bhutanese monarchy. I must say that both the nations are magnificently different in aspects of politics and monarchy's history. Long live Bhutan, the prosperous King and its people.
My religion is my king, the Wangchucks. We are indeed lucky to have such far sighted and loving monarch. Always a proud Bhutanese🇧🇹
There is nothing, you can be proud of your country.

See you after COVID 😀
We hope to see you here soon after the Covid situation gets better ❤
You are always welcomed here ☺️
So enlightening - especially connecting the dots (7, 16, 20 and 21 centuries). Thank you.

If all leaders of the country can fully understand their people it's not that hard to be loyal to him. This king is so cool. Thanks for sharing this story
This damn pandemic showed how brave and how caring our Kings and the royal family are. The king and the royal family works tirelessly for the welfare of the citizens. Long live the King! God save the king!
Honestly, the fourth king is one handsome man. Love from India 🇮🇳 to Bhutan 🇧🇹 our little brother.

lol, the truth is farther from what your imagination is telling you, it is a country where they drove away all the people who were different from the majority. It's not a shangrila that people have created in their imagination.
@@nikhilkay1 Here's another idjit. It is a country where leaders literally treks mountains and valleys to reach every part of the country where people reside to ensure that they're safe especially from dangers and pandemics like the current one. Those dissidents that got kicked out are not but an insignificant speck in the country's history, identity. Of course it's not a Shangrila, they never claimed it in the first place. Every society faces challenges. Don't be delusional. Besides, the term was tagged by foreigners when they visited the country seeing how peaceful and serene it is. You're insulting those that visited the country and left with pleasant experiences. Shame!
Wow, this was very fascinating and the history of the kings was indeed magnificent!
Thank you Team
Bhutan's king shows his love for his by his actions. Blessings on the King and the people of Bhutan.
The real monarch I would say. Respect to Bhutan's royals and its beautiful people.
That quote at the end was above awesome!
Bhutan is a beautiful country with beautiful Monarchy, beautiful Democracy and beautiful People. It is a peaceful country with kind hearted people who welcome visitors to their land with beautiful smiles on their faces. LONG LIVE BHUTAN.
Interesting! Very interesting! I’m impressed by the Bhutanese people and more so by their monarchs. ✅
We will soon see a Gold medal in Archery in Olympics from Bhutan. God bless this beautiful country
Fascinating
Such a magnificent country wish i am born in Bhutan...love from India
