The Sepoy Mutiny, also known as the Indian Rebellion of 1857, involved Indian soldiers (sepoys) in the British East India Company's army, who revolted against their British officers. Key figures included leaders like Mangal Pandey, who sparked the uprising, and various regional rulers such as Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi and Bahadur Shah II, the last Mughal emperor. The rebellion saw widespread participation from various segments of Indian society, including peasants, artisans, and princes, united against British colonial rule.
