Nepal Royal Massacre is one of modern history’s most shocking royal tragedies: a family gathering in Kathmandu that ended with King Birendra, Queen Aishwarya, and much of Nepal’s royal family dead. In this dark history podcast episode, we trace the Nepal Royal Massacre through Crown Prince Dipendra, his blocked relationship with Devyani Rana, the Shah dynasty prophecy, and the palace dinner on 1 June 2001 that turned into a massacre. This history podcast episode also examines the official account, Dipendra being crowned king while in a coma, Gyanendra’s succession, the Kathmandu riots, and the conspiracy theories that still surround the Nepal Royal Massacre.
