The Kingdom of Travancore (/ˈtrævənkɔːr/), also known as the Kingdom of Thiruvithamkoor, was an Indian kingdom from c. 1729 until 1949. It was ruled by the Travancore Royal Family from Padmanabhapuram, and later Thiruvananthapuram. At its zenith, the kingdom covered most of the south of modern-day Kerala, and the southernmost part of modern-day Tamil Nadu with the Thachudaya Kaimal's enclave of Irinjalakuda Koodalmanikyam temple in the neighbouring Kingdom of Cochin. However Tangasseri area of Kollam city and Anchuthengu near Attingal in Thiruvananthapuram district, were British colonies and were part of the Malabar District until 30 June 1927, and Tirunelveli district from 1 July 1927 onwards. Travancore merged with the erstwhile princely state of Cochin to form Travancore-Cochin in 1950. The five Tamil-majority Taluks of Vilavancode, Kalkulam, Thovalai, Agastheeswaram, and Sengottai were transferred from Travancore-Cochin to Madras State in 1956. The Malayalam-speaking regions of Travancore-Cochin merged with the Malabar District and the Kasaragod taluk of the South Canara district in Madras State to form the modern Malayalam-state of Kerala on 1 November 1956, according to the States Reorganisation Act, 1956 passed by the Government of India.

'Paliath Achan or Paliyath Achan is the name given to the oldest male member of the Paliam family. The "Paliath Achans" took power in Chendamangalam as the descendants of Villarvattam Raja who retreated to Udayam Perur due to the fall of Kodungallur and the decline of his race.It is believed that "Paliyath Achans" were the accountants of the Cochin kings. It is assumed that they were the Buddhists who settled at Mahadevarpattanam (Chendamangalam), during the period of Aryanization. When Villarvattam was declined, it was probably a "Komi Achan" who was adopted into the royal family. There is no evidence to suggest that the Paliath family belonged to the upper caste community during the Portuguese rule. But they were given a position above the Nayars in the social structure. The fact that locals used to address the Buddhist monks by giving them the title of 'Achan' is memorable here. There is other evidence to prove that the Paliyam family had a connection with Buddhism. The 'Paliyam chepedu' of the 9th century was discovered by T. A. Gopinatha Rao, the head of the Travancore Archeology Department, in 1917. 'Chepedu' mentions the donation made by Vikramadityavaraguna to a Buddhist temple in Sreemoolavasam(Kodungallur). Kodungallur, north of Chenda-Mangalam, was at that time the seat of this famous Buddhist center. There is an idol of 'Tara' belonging to the Buddhist tradition in the Paliyam palace.
