'''Bhopawar Agency''' was a sub-agency of the [[Central India Agency]] in [[British India]] with the headquarters at the town of Bhopawar, so the name. Bhopawar Agency was created in 1882 from a number of [[princely state]]s in the Western [[Nimar]] and Southern [[Malwa (Madhya Pradesh)|Malwa]] regions of [[Central India]] belonging to the former [[Bhil Agency]] and [[Bhil Sub-agency]] with the capitals at Bhopawar and [[Manpur, Indore|Manpur]].<ref>Great Britain India Office. ''[[The Imperial Gazetteer of India]]''. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1908.</ref> The agency was named after Bhopawar, a village in [[Sardarpur]] [[tehsil]], [[Dhar District]] of present-day [[Madhya Pradesh]] state. Manpur remained a strictly British territory.

The other chief towns of this region were: [[Badnawar]], [[Kukshi]], [[Manawar]] and [[Sardarpur]], Chadawad Estate , Dattigaon. The mighty [[Vindhya]] and [[Satpura]] ranges crossed the territory of the agency roughly from east to west, with the fertile valley of the [[Narmada River]] lying between them. The agency also included the "Bhil Country", inhabited by the [[Bhil people]].<ref>[https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?volume=8&objectid=DS405.1.I34_V08_151.gif Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 8, p. 145.]</ref>

== History ==
At the time of its 1882 establishment, the agency had a total area of {{convert|7684|sqmi|km2}}, and its population was 547,546 according to the 1901 census.
In 1904 certain districts were transferred from this agency to the [[Indore Residency]], created in 1899, and the area of Bhopawar was thus reduced by {{convert|3283|sqmi|km2}}.<ref name=EB1911>{{EB1911|inline=1 |wstitle=Bhopawar |volume=3 |page=846 }}</ref>

In 1925 Bhopawar Agency was merged into [[Malwa Agency]], and in 1927 the agency was renamed the Malwa-Bhopawar States Agency, which was renamed again as the Malwa Agency in 1934.

After [[Indian Independence Act 1947|Indian Independence]] in 1947, the rulers of the princely states within Malwa-Bhopawar Agency acceded to the [[Dominion of India|Union of India]], and the region became part of the new state of [[Madhya Bharat]]. Madhya Bharat was merged into [[Madhya Pradesh]] on 1 November 1956.
