The community came into prominence during the 18th century when the heirs of [[Peshwa]] from the [[Bhat family]] of [[Balaji Vishwanath]] became the de facto rulers of the [[Maratha Empire]]. Under the [[British Raj]], they were one of the Hindu communities in Maharashtra to flock to western education and, as such, they provided the bulk of social reformers, educationalists and nationalists of the late 19th century. Until the 18th century, the Chitpavans were held in low esteem by the [[Deshastha]], the older established [[Brahmin]] community of Maharashtra region.
