'''Amb State''' (approx 532 sq kms)attached to Hazara district of British India, was a small frontier state, that was originally known as ''Mulq i Tanawal'' (Land/Country of Tanawal); and was largely inhabited by the non-Pashtun/Pathan, 'Tanwali' or 'Tanoli' tribe. A part of this state was also given over to the smaller state (or ''Jagir'' estate) of [[Phulra ]] (approx 82 sq kms).
