Indeed it is Tim!

All that area is also of historical Gurkha service.

For holding the borders of the empire together against the hoards who couldnt be reliably & regularily either beaten or bought.

{Still the same service areas today actualy, Brit Gurkhas in Afghanistan & Indian Gorkhas in Assam & Nepali Army bordering China. {ex. Tibet of course.}
