Karlani

The Karlāṇī (کرلاڼي; also spelled Karrani) are a major Pashtun tribal confederacy. They primarily inhabit the former FATA regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, as well as parts of eastern Afghanistan.

In the 16th century, a branch of the confederacy established the Karrani dynasty, which served as the final ruling dynasty of the Bengal Sultanate before its integration into the Mughal Empire. .
