	'''Mir Sher Muhammad khan Talpur''', belonged to the Mirpurkhas house of royal [[Talpur]]s. He was the son of Mir Ali Murad Talpur, the founder of Mirpurkhas, and was born in 1810. He was the last ruler of Talpurs who fought British General [[Charles James Napier\|Charles Napier]] on 24 March 1843 at the [[Battle of Dubba\|battleground of Dubbo]] to liberate Sindh from British domination; after the Baloch forces lost the battle he and his men armed with [[muskets]] retreated into the rural areas where they began insurgencies against the British invaders, in fact it was [[Charles James Napier]] who invented the term: "[[Counterinsurgency]]".

	[[~~Category:Nawabs~~ of Pakistan]]		'''Mir Sher Muhammad Talpur''' was the last Mir of Mirpur Khas who belonged to the Manikani house of the [[Talpur dynasty]]. The son of [[Ali Murad Talpur\|Mir Ali Murad Talpur]], the founder of [[Mirpur Khas]], he ascended the throne in 1829 and held onto it until he was defeated in the [[Battle of Hyderabad]] in 1843.

			After becoming ruler of the Talpur dynasty, his reign saw a conflict with the [[East India Company\|British East India Company]], who launched an invasion of the province of [[Sindh]] under the auspices of General [[Charles James Napier]], aiming to annex the entire region. On 24 March 1843, troops under his command fought against a [[Presidency armies\|Company force]] in the [[Battle of Hyderabad]]; the British emerged victorious, and captured the city of [[Hyderabad, Pakistan\|Hyderabad]] soon after. Talpur then retreated into the countryside, where forces loyal to him and equipped largely with [[musket]]s waged a [[Guerrilla warfare\|guerrilla campaign]] against the British, whose efforts to counter this led Napier to coin the word "[[counterinsurgency]]". He eventually died on 24 August 1874.{{citation needed\|date=April 2022}}
