Vanhnuailiana (English: Vonolel[a]; lit. 'the greatest of all under the skies'[1]; c. 1800 - 1871) was the chief of the Eastern Lushai Hills. Vonolel expanded his influence over the Sukte and Poi tribes in the east and attempted incursions into Naga territories in Manipur. He was considered the most powerful chief in the Eastern Lushai Hills until his death in 1871. He presided over several conflicts during his period of chieftainship.
