'''Ramasimhadeva''' was the fourth King of the [[Karnat dynasty]] of [[Mithila (region)|Mithila]].

==Rule==
Ramasimhadeva has been described as a "pious devotee and was a firm patron of sacred literature" and his reign was generally quite peaceful. He compiled several commentaries on the [[Vedas]]. He also created various rules that were meant to guide Hindus and officers were sent to each village to ensure these were followed. Several other administrative reforms have also been attributed to him including the use of village accountants.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Mishra |first1=Vijaykanta |title=Cultural Heritage of Mithila |date=1979 |publisher=Mithila Prakasana |page=58 |url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.108245/page/n79/mode/2up |accessdate=5 August 2020}}</ref>

During his reign, the Tibetan monk; [[Dharmasvamin]] arrived in the main Karnat capital of [[Simraungadh]] and described Ramasimhadeva as treating him with courtesy and even offering him the post of palace priest despite being a [[Buddhist]]. Ramasimhadeva also maintained [[Darbhanga]] as his second capital and today, many places are found in Darbhanga that reference his name.
