Nizam of Hyderabad[edit]

I think the following phrase in the Wikipedia article "British Residency, Hyderabad" must be incorrect: "The building was once the embassy of the East India Company to the court of the Nizam of Hyderabad" because the hyperlink for "Nizam of Hyderabad" takes you to a page which states that "Nizam of Hyderabad was the title of the monarch of the Hyderabad State". Hyderabad State was a state in India, the capital city of which was also called Hyderabad - it is now the capital and largest city of the Indian state of Telangana. The confusion arises because there are two cities called Hyderabad, one in Sindh province, Pakistan an the other in India. CurlingWisps (talk) 04:15, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
