To understand the background of Sangram singh, also known as Rana Pratap or Rana Sangha, one needs to understand the background of the Mewar/Marwar area. While in Rajasthan most of them are converts from Jats. Rajputs are new converts to typical formal hinduism from various roiginal tribes like Jats, Gujars, Marathas, Ahirs, Pahadis etc. Its all beyond doubt that Rajasthan's original name was Jatistan only. Banswara (Bains Jat again not found in Rajputs till today), Tonk(district)/Tokus jats of Takhshila fame having maharaja Ambhi during Porus/Allexander Reign.ДЄbove all Jaiselmer is till today a place as ijjesselmeir in the the county of Jutland on Denmark Holland Penninsula. Like Sirohi is till today no Rajput surname but its Jat surname. However, looking on other cities and districts nearby, they are all named after Jats. It should be understood in this context only. But that is due to Brahmanisation of Jats into Rajputs. Smith opined rather Brahmana origin of Mewar. That's why most of the clans of Marathas are of Jats only.Д¬onversion of other tribes into Rajputs by fictitious means (like Mount Abu episode) continued as late as the crowning of Sivaji. For about 1000 years Jats were mixing with the local population of modern Maharashtra and the mixed race acquired predominently Jat like characteristics. Marathas otherwise were Haihayya Yadavs who in turn were a branch of Jats. When Sivaji was crwoned brahmans related his fore fathers also from the gahlote Rajputs of Jittore. That way however, n e body can be related to n e one.

One was at Magadh, another at Kashmir, one at Ujjain and One at Jittore, the modern Chittore. When Maurya samrajya of Jats declined it was devided into four parts. Till today More and Sibi clans are nowhere found in Rajputs. The coins of More (Maurya, the Asoka) and Sibi (modern Sibia Jats) have been unearthed from the fort. Even alberuni mentioned it as Jattore n not Chittore. The very name of Chittore was Jittore, wherefrom Chittore is derived.
