Comments

- Jego Wysokość Nizam Sir Mir Osman Ali Khan Siddiqi Asaf Jah VII, urodzony jako Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur, był ostatnim Nizamem (lub władcą) książęcego stanu Hyderabad i Berar. Rządził Hajdarabadem w latach 1911-1948, dopóki nie został on zaanektowany przez Indie.
Później został Rajpramukh stanu Hyderabad 26 stycznia 1950 r. i rządził do 31 października 1956 r., po czym stan został podzielony na podstawie językowej i stał się częścią Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka i Maharashtra.
W czasach, gdy był Nizamem, był uważany za najbogatszego człowieka na świecie, a jego majątek szacowano na 2 miliardy dolarów na początku lat czterdziestych (33,8 miliarda dolarów obecnie) lub 2 procent ówczesnej gospodarki USA. W tym czasie skarb nowo niepodległego rządu Indii odnotowywał roczny dochód w wysokości zaledwie 1 miliarda dolarów. 22 lutego 1937 r. został przedstawiony na okładce magazynu TIME jako najbogatszy człowiek świata. Powszechnie uważa się, że Nizam pozostał najbogatszym człowiekiem w Azji Południowej aż do swojej śmierci w 1967 roku, choć jego majątek spadł do 1 miliarda dolarów i stał się przedmiotem wielu sporów prawnych między zaciekle walczącymi rywalizującymi potomkami.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

- His Exalted Highness Nizam Sir Mir Osman Ali Khan Siddiqi Asaf Jah VII , born Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur , was the last Nizam (or ruler) of the Princely State of Hyderabad and of Berar. He ruled Hyderabad between 1911 and 1948, until it was annexed by India.
Later he was made the Rajpramukh of Hyderabad State on 26 January 1950 and continued until 31 October 1956, after which the state was partitioned on a linguistic basis and became part of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra.
During his days as Nizam, he was reputed to be the richest man in the world, having a fortune estimated at US $2 billion in the early 1940s ($33.8 billion today) or 2 per cent of the US economy then. At that time the treasury of the newly independent Union government of India reported annual revenue of US $1 billion only. He was portrayed on the cover of TIME magazine on 22 February 1937, described as the world's richest man. The Nizam is widely believed to have remained as the richest man in South Asia until his death in 1967, though his fortunes fell to US$1 billion by then and became a subject of multiple legal disputes between bitterly fighting rival descendants.
