This man defends Britain's record more than most Brits
He is not wrong though.
@@AndrewDixon69 Nope, he's right abt the tiktok. Just morally void too.
@@AndrewDixon69bruh so it's ok to steal from other people put it in a museum and basically colonize them and treat them like animals
the border suck the only thing that the British were good at but for some reason they didn't want to do that there because it was hot or something
@@AndrewDixon69 stop stealing stuff and making it your own and rewriting history so it aline with your hypocrisy
@@AndrewDixon69His thoughts that british didn't wanted the partition is actually wrong , Completely agree that Muslims didn't wanted to live with us , and they wanted a separate country ,but also after three days of independence it was a british who signed the attack on kashmir "OPERATION GULMARGG" , because they wanted partition at every cost , reason being they wanted to control Pakistan and put it as a proxy against the Russians in Xinjiang where they were having nuclear Weapons test.
This is why I always say:
Dont be politically correct.
Be historically accurate.

I agree with many points but about Durrani,
He did defeat the Marathas in one battle at Panipat, but when he was made aware of a bigger Maratha host riding for Delhi he was quick to retreat. He also sued for peace via his letters to the Peshwa(the head of the Maratha government).
Overall Panipat was a battle that was won by the afghanis through the skill of Ahmed shah Durrani, the incompetence of Sadashivrao, and some religious backstabbing to the Marathas by the Nawab of Oudh. The Marathas were quick to regain every inch of lost territory and then smoke, but the war was still a destabilising factor for the somewhat fragile system of governance of the Marathas. Soon the empire became increasingly decentralised, commonly now referred to as the Maratha Confederacy. Eventually, this gave way to the stat on state politics which allowed the Europeans to take advantage, which was pure RNG as outside Europe, the Indian subcontinent had the most active use of firearms. Thew durranis themselves fell into a bit of infighting as well as getting stomped by the Sikh empire.
About the Indian volunteer army in WW 1 and 2. That is on us, or more so the congress. There are even theories that the INC was more so a pressure lid than a freedom movement to the British. They were more afraid of the INA of Subhash Chandra Bose than a self-starving Gandhi.
Also F#CK the Mughals. It truly is hilarious that some people from the subcontinent only hail the barbaric monsters as heroes on one hand whose atrocities made the Europeans (except Spain & Portugal) look like some hippies.
I'm surprised he didn't say PAKISTAKANDA FOREVER (pakistani wakanda)
pakistan and wakanda?
there is a reason why when you type international bhikari, the photo of Imran khan will appear .
there are reasons why it is called Bhikaristan.
and there are genuine good natured pakistanis who actually love their country but because majority of their countrymen behave like this ( i call it jaahiliyat ) both in internet and in real world , they feel great shame to identify as one in western world and instead say they are from India.
@MUGHAL EMPİRE that's you. watch your face in mirror because it got too dirty from cleaining toilets in dubai.
@@patriotenfield3276 Dude what did you even write? I have nothing against Pakistan. They are all friendly.
The guy on the video was trying to elevate Pakistan to such level as if it were fantasy wakanda.
Unpopular opinion: the British regime in India was just as bad as the 'democratic' rule in the first 40 years after independence.
Unpopular FACT: The British regime in India was 100% preferred to the Mughal Empire by the locals.
@@maozedong8370 Well obviously, the mughals had religious (jaaziya) tax on non Muslims, and most of them weren't religiously tolerant.

I live in an area with a substantial Punjabi Sikh population and have dear friends of both Punjabi Sikh and Pakistani Punjabi Muslim origin. They are both amazing people and are really cool to speak with. But the generational hate they have for one another is too strong to make amends anytime in this generation. This goes back hundreds of years before white people colonized Europe.
When did white people colonise Europe?
Isn’t most of the sikhs in britain khalistanis. They also hate India.
The enemity between Sikhs and muslims is from the time when Mughal king jhangir killed one of the sikh guru.
I have been waching your videos since the Ukrain inveson thank you so much for creating a video on Indian history and thank you so much for talking about tamur,and vijyanagar empire not blaming anyone but during times of muslim empires and European colonialism we Hindus and our culture suffered the most and your work on invesion is faar better than most mainstream media houses lots of love from a Indian hindu 🙏🙏🙏🙏

As an Indian man living in Britain, I can hate the tragedies the British empire ravaged upon India, but I would never hold it against modern day Britons
we are filling rapidly with angry muslims who hate Britain and want revenge, for everything from the Crusades (which were defensive actions), to Afghanistan. I don't think they like Hindus and Sikhs much either. Wonder where British refugees will go if it gets critical. Indians, at least, have a homeland to return to. We don't
We did some bad things to India but without British rule there wouldn’t have been a political union called India. Brits gave India democracy, free press and the rule of law. Brits gave India railway. Between 2016 and 2020 the UK sent £1.9 billion in aid to India..
@@johnxforce4 some bad things 3.5 million people die in famine because of you and you call it some bad things ? That's just the biggest one and we paid for railways you did not do it out of your own pocket.and leave all this also please tell me when you ruled for 200 years in that region British raj was for almost 100 years so when it ended people told you transition will take 5-6 years maybe more for it to be peaceful and all what did you guys do 6 fucking months even our leaders asked British to stay so partition and all the things could go smoothly you royaly fucked it up.and i an indian so from my perspective let's forget all this let's forget partition also now when india was free you guys left india struggled alot for technology development and all that where was Britain ? Don't you think it would have made good impression on Indians if British companies and government were helping out india in development and it would have benefitted you also in long run but no you guys were busy wagging tail for Americans
@@johnxforce4 and 2 billion euros seriously dude ? Who do you think we are pakistan no one asked for your money and first of all Indian government does not accept aid from British it's you people doing all this through ngos and stuff pushing your propaganda in exchange in name of Christianity again which is not welcomed here. And you know what we don't care anymore as a country we are richer than you my kids generation will be richer than you British in personal wealth also and you guys are and will be irrelevant to the world just and american lapdog people acknowledge you because of your past in present there's nothing impressive and future is even more bleak for you guys so i don't have hatred for you people i have pity for what you have become and what future holds for you mini pakistan you will become i am waiting for that day ✌️✌️✌️

No. He's not British. Clearly he doesn't want the best for people like me, doesn't look like one of me, and sounds like nothing would make him happier than cultural genocide if British people, and he makes this pretty clear in his video. What he is, is a subversive pretender and a national security risk.
Yeah wants to come and enjoy the benefits of the country but doesn’t support or respect the customs of the native population. I’d start deporting people who have that much hate for supposedly they’re own country.
@Fox2 he’s a British Indian, British isn’t an ethnicity. English is.
As a German, you learn a lot about our history, back to the Roman War. How is it that a lot of other countries do not learn thier History?
We do learn our history but the version that our government and intellectuals want us to learn. For example in Mexico they teach us all about the native civilizations but nothing about the history of Spain, who conquered the land and started our national culture. They just casually teach us that the Spaniards came out of nowhere for no reason, just to plunder the land
Some of these countries are controlled by totalitarian regimes who obviously don't want their people to really learn about the historic truth.
German bro we know our history very well than u bcoz it is well recorded every moment, who r u preaching to look at u, how stupid u were wanted to conquer whole world 😂 f'd up by allies
Exactly 💯
We do. Its just that everyone else sleeps through those classes
I feel bad for my boy Timur. He went through all the trouble of establishing one of the greatest empires from the ground up, killing tens of millions, having a higher k/d ratio than Hitler, nearly destroying the Ottomans, breaking the back of the golden horde, and then his descendants established the Mughal empire. But in the end, he became an obscure historical figure only known by history nerds.
#sedlyf
Those Turkic/ moguls were bad boys !
He should have let some of his conquered subjects live, built a global media empire to amplify their grievances, and established a banking system to empower them. *Then* he'd be well known like funny-mustache-man, and the ADL would hound his ancestors forever.
He didn't just die. He cursed his own tomb that anyone who would try to unearthen his resting place will be cursed with endless cycles of Death. USSR under Stalin did that. and we all know what happened next.
@@patriotenfield3276 just came for this comment
As an American even we were taught about how important it Indian troops were to both the uk and to America in both world wars. My grandfather who fought in WW2 use to tell me about how much respect he had for the Indian fighters. He told me about how the Indians fighters that was stationed next to each other, and would share their food with each other and because of my grandfather being a Cajun they’d trade spices from the Indians for the ice cream the United States was sending to its troops. They never was a huge population of the Indian people here in New Orleans, but I think my grandfather knew every single one of them that did settle here because he would always make sure to seek them out and to welcome them here because of how much he really loved them

It never ceases to amaze me how many mental gymnastics people have to go through to call out white colonialism while COMPLETELY ignoring colonialism by Africa, the Middle East, Asia, etc.
And simultaneously creating a Eden-like fantasy about every situation that existed prior to the colonialism they are pointing out.
It's not really mental gymnastics, it's the academic dogma of our age. Like I guess you can call it mental gymnastics, but understand that the universities are literally teaching them to do those specific gymnastic moves.
There is also a post-colonialism created Eden-like fantasy, as in " everything will be fine now that we have chased the evil colonizers". There are many examples that prove the opposite.

The only skills shown by this guy is his avoidance of historical reality.
He knows nothing about reality, never mind history.
He thinks historical reality is a morality play, and all he wants to know is not what happened, but who are the goodies and baddies.
This is a caricature of history-but he prefers to wallow in his ignorance and stupidity.
I'd bet good money this gut has never been near a library but did his research via ignorant You Tube and Tik Tok postings.
You are spot on mate, people are so ill educated about history, but our education system is also to blame.
Dude both this Mughal offshoot and the white pompous brit both were colonisers of our country and looted our country dry. And they would do it again if given the opportunity. So don’t be so naive, decolonize your mind and stand up for yourself and your community. Set your own narrative and don’t let these outsiders set the narrative.

As a South African we learn about the colonial period (at least through one of my Uni majors) and you know what I like about the studies that I do, they tell you historical facts, and they also tell you the perspecrives from Africans as well as Europeans. One quote that I love in one of my books are "remember that the way people thought during that time reflected the politics of that time" in a way they acknowledge the wrongdoings of colonialism without blaming modern day Europeans for it. They reflect on the way that things just were the way they were because that's what that time period entailed. Yes, colonialism has a lot of bad things, but we can't overlook the good things or blame modern day people for it
Indeed. Also what people did to their own people were different back then, then what we would do now.
yes as well that many other countries and cultures were trying to invade. As far I have had history the Mongolians tried to come into Europe. Other European countries invaded other European countries. The Ottoman Empire try to come into Europe as well. Yet these were often forgotten or people just didn't care about it because we don't pretend to have an innocent history because we very well know that no single country/culture has an innocent history. That also helps. I just hope people will never do it again... although Russia is now invading Ukraine, but that was the leader that decided that the people were all surprised. I guess it's always the elite. The rest of the people are always surprised. I am just happy to know that my family never left my homeland at least not back to 1400s.

Disagree
Saying something like "Muslim" colonisers is same as saying "Christians" colonised Europe. Which though is true to some extent but is very different from British colonialism of Asian and African countries where British were invaders and not natives to the land.
They were racially motivated to commit acts of racial violence against people of the land and consider them as not equal humans.
They looted from their counties and made themselves rich and then they made a run back to their countries leaving the natives of the colonies to die from famine.
Muslims were almost always natives of the land they ruled. They never took the wealth out other nation in most cases and made the areas they ruled as their country or capital, they didn't rule from London from example.
So the analogy put by him was wrong and unacceptable.

I am Indian (not that that gives me a position of authority in this subject though), and I completely agree with the points you make here. I just think that one of the reasons why people think of the British colonisation as being "more evil" is because it was in recent history, and the people it affected are still alive today. I'm sure if the Moguls colonised India instead of the British at that time, the roles would be reversed. We have a fair bit of Mogul integration, when it comes to media, if anyone here remembers Akhbar and Birbal? But again, great video
Akbar was the only tolerant among them. and despite being tolerant,he destroyed many temples in chitoorgarh just to show Maharana Pratap how much he is powerful.
No man, I agree with most of what he said. But EIC stealing trillions is mostly true. If you are really Indian, you should what they did to our farmers for growing spices and cotton. (Spices were like gold at the time). Also, the Idea of India existing long back even though for most of its history, India was in pieces. There are mentions of unified India in texts.
There is some truth to the tik tok guys narrative as well bengal famine did happen. British slaughtered a lot of indians. Also Kashmir they left it unresolved and india and Pakistan are in indefinite arms race while the rest of the world gets real development.
Ignorance is not an excuse.
@@geraldg350 yeah, it's a mistake
The first sentence that he says is an eye opener in itslef. "Growing up in Britain he was taught that Indians are our enemies". What kind of hate mongering parents would say that to a child. I now understand the reason for tensions in Leicester and Birmingham.
I also find it interesting that he doesn't expand on *who* taught him this. It certainly wasn't the British school system, I can tell you that for free. His racist parents are who taught him that and that is somehow Britain's fault.
The tensions between Indians and Pakistanis occurred before the Brits were involved in India.
It’s ironic, hilariously embarrassing, but anti-British for a Pakistani to try and claim that the disunity between Indians and Pakistanis only occurred because of Britain, when it was the Muslims in India that pushed for their own state because they didn’t want to be ruled by a non-Muslim majority.
He is playing on an anti-white, anti-British, anti-western narrative that because Indians are Pakistanis are both South Asian and ‘brown’ then they must have always seen themselves as united brothers, when it was their huge cultural differences that distinguish them from each other more than anything.
Indeed !
Leicester, (no to long ago), became majority non English, (and I mean English), with massive imported foreign problems... Birmingham, (though not far behind), is minority English, (and I mean English), and again, with massive imported foreign problems... little to non of the foreign people's who settled in England, were ever assimilated & absorbed by the native population... and thus, are still foreign people's... who clearly have imported their foreign problems to our land... England. As an Englishman... there is one fraise which will always be said by us Englishmen long after England ill's have been purged, and that is... *"We were never asked"!*

this is so true im Welsh from Britan and the schools kept telling us how bad the English treated us and how they took our country and culture and i was so mad i hated the English but i really got in to history and realized if i kept my attitude id just be adding to the problem and things turned out so what am i mad about.
The people who spread that nonsense are the same people who spread Scottish independence. They will fracture this world with their ideologies and everyone will end up bankrupt. The Welsh and Scottish economies are built up by England, if the union collapses, ALL members would suffer. The people who spread this ideology are the ones trying to attain power for themselves by breaking away like that Scottish b*tch (I don't remember her name). The reason they say such things is to put themselves in a better position, not necessarily everyone else.
@@llmeekos verry true.
To be fair, the Welsh had it really good. It still exists, most countries conquered 700 years ago don’t exist, let alone keep their history, language and culture.
@@maxdavis7722 Not for lack of trying though. It truly is a testament to the indomitable will of the remaining Celtic people that they still exist at all. If they were pretty much any other people the Welsh and Irish would've been completely erased/assimilated, just like the rest of the Britons in modern day England and Scotland, or like the Gauls in modern day France.
@@ryujin9568 that’s very unlikely. Suggesting that every other group that didn’t survive to this point simply weren’t as tough or resilient as the celts is really just an insult to them. It’s much more likely that the English just cared much less about homogeneity in their nation (which is generally pretty much true, it’s very individualist and hasn’t done much historically to force the English together). England also recognised the Welsh people very early on, the Welsh really didn’t have to do much fighting to exist, the English gave it to them during the Tudor period.
Finally the celts are not resilient at all, they dominated most of Europe and lost pretty much all land they covered.
I love the argument of “we are not taught (insert subject matter here.)” Problem with this narrative is that no one is actively stopping you from learning about world history, at least when it comes to living in Britain and The United States, and pretty much any other country that doesn’t actively censor the materials used to research and read up on recorded history. Primary schools are meant to give broad information, especially when it comes to history. If you want to learn about specific times or places in history in great detail in an academic setting, you will pretty much have to go to a university.
Yeah why should a British school teach the history of India?? If you want all of the world you have to stay in school for all your life
@@whitezombie10 you don't have to stay in school all your life, but committing to that fact will teach the history of the world.
They also censor in US. So...
It's almost like they expect lo leave high school with a Phd in each subject. And sometimes they do teach X subject matter, but people fail to recognise they were not interested at all, or were probably complaining about "what am I gonna use this for in real life?", or the teacher constantly had to stop the class to address disruptive students.
BTW "What am I gonna use this for?"... I graduated high school in '97. History is not my livelihood, but it certainly keeps me entertained during my spare time and helps me get a better understanding about current issues, countries, cultures, etc.
@@whitezombie10 yeah whyy??? It will remind them how broke they were😂
Hey I think you approached this subject brilliantly. Any dodgy change in History , call it out!! I’m glad you’re qualifying exactly how things were. Putting the History into the right context . There’s so much hypocrisy on tiktoc

Mughal Empire Sultanate also United India. He was talking about Mughal Empire. Yes, it was in decline but another Muslim power would have emerged on the same scale as usual after some time if chaos , in a natural state, if it wasn't for UK and others intervention and manipulation and then colonialism.
Yes, you said alot of facts, true.
But, at the end of the discussion in 1946-47 Watson and few others came with the idea to make the problem with Kashmiri and drew the line - Radcliffe Line. As usual with no regard to anything but chaos on purpose by no care and putting some pieces there and there. Who assassinated mahatma gandhi? The actor is one of his realtives that he was a bit mental. But who is the orchestrator? UK. Because if Gandhi meet he would have solved the Kashmiri problem in a way or another.
Also, it doesn't matter fact here. Regardless of his bs. People hate Europe and USA governments and those whom is racist people amongst them. Same in China too and Africa.
British themselves where surprised with their success. They sort of win because: division, manipulation of the heighest level by the British, traitors, bad leaders, it gone on for a longtime, Indian bad traitor leaders. Because even during colonialism India was still controlled by Indian rulers in behalf of UK. A portion of Indian leaders decided to use the British. Also the UK used a class of people against the other. They and their traitors Ailes gang banged any good guy.
It is a fact Mughal Empire Sultanate had 35% of the world economy at the time and UK did steal tone of stuff. The value of it especially by time is in my opinion priceless and even if they give us all of USA economy would not be enough and not even close.
You ignoreing Mughal Empire Sultanate whom ruled India for 800 years and before that there was Delie Sultanate whom lasted for 200 years but for 50 yers ish controlled most of India. The guy was talking about Mughal Empire.
Ya because those Indian soldiers that fought for colonialisers are part of the problem itself and they are traitors to their people. At least to their village.
Ya exactly their entire ancestry. They where a specific class of Indians that UK created as a tool to secure control over India useing Indians. Those where already living well for most of them.
Also treatment of solders it doesn't denie the racism and what tgey still where doing to the majority of indains in the Indian subcontinent.
About your last point. There is an Arab proverb goes exactly like this "me and brother against the/my cousin. Me and my cousin against the foreign". They shared borders and close to eachothers not the other side of the world.
Eye for an eye my friend. And if it makes the world "blind", then so bad whatsoever. Blind physically with pride is better than haveing eyes without pride/your honor being attacked. We can/could forgive , but that is our chose and who have the right to do any. We chose eye for an eye.
Muslims where not exactly doing what Islam says really. They where Mongolia first and Muslim second. Alot of Muslims in Middle-east at the time would have called them hypocrites. But , they where not as bad as the British and they lived there. They are no colonizers.
So you are right and he is a bit right.

Had an interesting conversation with an Indian guy once. Asked if he thought Britain should pay reparations for their conquest of the Subcontinent, to which he replied no. When I asked why, he replied: "They only pick on Britain for two reasons: 1. It's more recent, and the effects of it are still being felt and 2. Britain has the most money to spare. These people don't care about the suffering of their ancestors, all they care about is money." Can't say I disagree with him.
Edit: Seems like I've started a war in the replies.
I don't agree with reparations as well but due to entirely different reasons. First of all England can never pay back for all the atrocities and tyranny committed here. Putting a monetary cap on those would be disrespectful to all those who have died due to the unfair governance during colonial times.
Secondly, reparations in the form of apologies would be much more appreciated than some sum of money.
Thirdly, even if England wanted to give monetary payment, whom would it be given to - the raj has been divided into India, Pakistan, bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan and Pakistani economies are falling so they might need some aid, but India and Bangladesh don't.
And, these are not the only countries who were colonised.
If, England starts giving reparations to all the colonised countries in monetary form, it would go into debt.
Improving trade relations and investing in those economies would be much better than going the other route.
The Anglo-Saxons stole 45 trillion dollars of the South Asian subcontinent. Whether they pay it back is a separate matter.
Similar thing to the black Americans who want reparations. They're happy to ignore the millenia of slavery perpetrated by Africans on other Africans, but since the white people bought people who were already enslaved by their own race, suddenly white people have to cough up money for it

No mention of forcing Hindumisic propaganda to neuter entire civilization over d century. And on and on… He’s obviously clueless.
Let me tell a real story.
I am from a small village in India. There we use a bridge that was built by the British more than 100 years ago but strong, beautiful, and intact. Our politicians decided to demolish this and build a new one . With huge cost and time we manage to build one. Guess what a crack appears with in 2 months. They close traffic and repair it , which they still do after every heavy rainfall. Finally, our brilliant politicians unveil the truth. The "British ". Yes, it is the fault of the British .
just because you saw one bridge from british time does not mean all bridges built by british have survived for 100 years. try to understand the bias in our observation.

As an Indian hindu whose ancestors have seen the worst kind of times for multiple generations, and we are still seeing the huge threat to our civilization and culture. I just have to say no one has been merciful to us, from foreign muslim invaders, mughals(timurids as we call them), britishers and all European colonialists, literally none of them have been kind to us through out the history. We have suffered constant threat to our lives, identity and peace. We were fortunate enough to have revolutionary and visionary leaders among ourselves from time to time to show us the path to unity and fighting the evil together. I salute to all those know and unknown fighters who have sacrificed their lives for us and our future generations so that we are able to live in relatively peaceful times with injured yet intact identity we have been able to protect all this while, we must make sure this streak of independence and strength within ourselves continues and nobody dares to even think of raising eye towards our motherland.
Nobody can take this away from us now.
And yet, the ability of the Sanatana Dharma to absorb the light from all sources (which was the pluralism that Mahatma Gandhi and Swami Vivekananda supported) has allowed it prosper. Despite the harms committed by Islamic invasions in the North (people like Aurangzeb were particularly problematic), there were also more harmonious interactions in the South as well as in many parts of the North thanks to the pluralistic efforts of people such as Kabir and even Emperor Akbar (to a certain extent). I would also say that British rule was significantly worse than any other major Empire as it was during their period when India's economy stagnated and declined. During the Mughal era and before, it was one of the largest in the world. The Mughals did not carry the Taj Mahal out of India. Throughout history, people have faced opposition when they tried to express the truth. Prophet Muhammad was famously forced to escape from Mecca to Medina in order to escape persecution. The early Christians faced animosity from both the Jews and the Romans. What was done to the Jews during the 20th century is not hidden from most individuals. India, and Sanatana Dharma, have thankfully had and incorporated ideas such as Advaita Vedanta and Anekantavada that have helped it see the truth in more than one location. The Islamic view of Wahdat al Wujud has some interesting points of agreement with Advaita (particularly on the idea of the unity of being). Of course, we should not be ignorant and pretend that Islamic extremism and other threats do not exist. I only hope that such issues can be resolved through a meaningful dialogue rather than potentially immensely destructive conflicts that would cause a loss of much that is valuable. 🙏🇮🇳☮️☮️
While we blame the British we don’t see the plank in our own eyes. The biggest enemy was not Mughals, British, Portuguese or Persians or Greeks. It was Hinduism itself!

Well truth be told a big part of India is populated by proto-aryans who migrated into India from... Central Asia (weird huh?) that pushed out and displaced Dravidians to the South and settled in their place.
So your point is kinda moot.
Doesn't matter if Mughal rulers where not ethnic Indians (whatever that means. Technically there is no such thing as an Indian ethnicity, race, culture or religion. It's a patchwork of hundreds if not thousands of ethnicities). India as a "Nation" was kinda invented when the English created the British Indian Empire.
In short, every nation is another nation's "invader" and not one is exempt of the sin of domination. Some rulers in history are individually worst than some others, but don't let that overshadow the achievements of the other "good" rulers that existed in every dynasty line.

Before 1947, there was no "sync" between us nd mainland India. Same goes for states like Nagaland, Mizoram and Meghalay. As well as Sikkim. And you speak about "fantasies".
And I said that Roman Empire had ruled a "lot of Europe", that is why there is a LOT of similarities between the languages and cultures of Spain, Italy, France etc, just like how their is a LOT of cultural similarities between UP, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar. People from these states can EASILY shift between them and will require minimum amount of cultural and linguistic adjustment. Whereas, say, if a Haryanavi person wants to shift to Kerela, the cultural and linguistic adjustments will be greater, and if he/she wants to shift Arunachal or Nagaland, then the cultural and linguistic adjustment will be same as moving into a different country because of the racial, historical, cultural and linguistic differences.
And that is why I was comparing India to a united Europe. Just like how their is minimal cultural and linguistic differences between the states of Hindi belt, the same applies to the countries that were integral in the Roman Empire (Italy, France, Spain and Portugal). The linguistic diffence between these countries is minimal as these languages are more or less derived from Vulgar Latin. And same for their cultures.

Rome had not control or local administrative muscle. Rome was just an urban centric civilisation.
India & China have always been different, we had very well established hierarchical systems. The administration structure was identical all over India, Even British operated in same structure, which is why they managed to expand so quickly, and local populations had not problems.
@@riscnx bro, you are COMPLETELY missing my point.
1. To counter your "Rome was just urban centric", so were all Indian empires that controlled majority of the Indian subcontinent. That is why there is such diversity in India. We often joke that languages change every 50KM or so in India. Why do you think that is ? It is because all pan-India empires like the Gupta, Maurya, Mughal, Maratha, British India etc were also urban centric.
2. Not all settles communities follow the Varna system in north-east. My father's tribe, the Apatani, have been settled for centuries. We have private properties and paddy fields that go back generations. And we had no clue what Varna system was until 1947.
3. You fail to see similarities between the Republic of India and a hypothetical united Europe.
(A.) You can equate the countries of the Romance languages (French, Spainish, Italian and Portuguese) with the Hindi belt. These countries are linguistically similar, just like the states of the Hindi belt where the lingua franca, i.e. Hindustani, is spoken albeit with different regional dialects.
(B.) You can compare the Slav and the Germanic people with the Dravidian group. Another major linguistic group who share more in common with their own fellow Slavic(Serbian Croatian, etc) /Germanic (the various tribes of Germany)/Dravidian (Tamils, Kannadiags, Telgu) ethnic groups than they with the Romance/Hindi belt group BUT still share lots of history together due to a large empire like the Roman (for Europe) and the Gupta, Maurya and the Mughal (for Indian subcontinent) that ruled them all together for some time atleast.
(C.) You can compare the Sami, a minority group in various nordic countries, with the various tribes of north east due to the fact that they are a minority w.r.t. population, culture and language.

@@vedantbelurkar why do you care more about a lesser massacre which was an accident than a deliberate one between Muslims and Sikhs?
Worked at a Northern India style restaurant when I was in my early 20's as a dishwasher. The staff were all basically family, and extremely kind to me and pretty much everyone else. Except one guy who worked the tandoor who was valuable as an employee, but had Muslim family from Pakistan. They were MUCH nicer to me, a white college aged kid, then him. At times, their rants at him got very fiery, which of course I didn't understand the language but got the vibe. I figured it was about his work, but eventually was let on it had much more to do background, family, religion, etc. Very powerful introduction into a divide I'd never really thought of
Their mindset of raping and killing hindus only because their holy books says kill the pegans and invade their land (quran chapter 9 verse 6 and many more).........and history of hindus heing raped and inslaved massacred are the reasons.....we have hard feeling for isl@m and their's radical followers .
So you see, the problem
It had to do more with Post partition politics and the politicisation of Muslims by pakistan. Pakistan used religion as a justifying tool to do everything against India. Even in kashmir they used religion as a motive to invade.
@TT vice versa.
maybe because hindus were massacred outright by the islamic empires - I mean why should I feel nnice to a minority which gets appeased in every single elction - have made their own sharia law as civil law . their descendants in india had ancestors who voted for pakistan , they support pakistan in cricket match . why on earth should I care if they are hated coz they deserved it
it is true that Britain exploited crazy wealth from india. Its possible they stole trillions of dollars worth of goods. Yes india was divided and got overpowered. But the British really steal most of india's wealth. Even the instructure built by the British was meant to take the ressources from the mines and spice fields and so on went straight to sea ports avoiding most cities thus causing the cities to become poor. The same thing is still happening in Africa right now. Leaving a few warlords super wealthy while the rest are living in poverty, most don't even have internet. Yes the British united India, but they also exploited them. Canada and the US were only different because the natives almost all died so it became Britain 2.0
British weren't the ones who kept India together, after the british left modern India was divided into 500 princely states and Sardaar Vallabh bhai Patel United all those 500 princely states together. These princely states were given a choice either to join India or Pakistan or remain Independent to which majority voted to join India. Otherwise great video.

Shame, fear, and anxiety is interfering in the critical study of history. One of the most important topics is being obscured and it’s robbing everyone of their past.
As a bengali whenever I come up with the horrors of British colonization and how brutal they were to us, I always bring up the various positive societal changes forced upon us. Forced because due to religious or cultural ties we didnt wanted to refrain from many bad practices, like sotidaho (Burning the wife of a dead husband alive). In most cases British faced strong opposition, yet they persisted. Which didn't made any economical sense, they did those because they deemed them the moral thing to do. Denying those will be dishonest and downright hypocritical.

@@prasheel_ashok_shetty 🤡Bengali? No nationality?
@@prasheel_ashok_shettyDuring the Bengal famine, there was a war. Thanks to the Government of India Act 1935, the British Raj Government in Delhi was not responsible for food and agriculture, that power was transferred to the provincial government now run by Indians. Burma, which was part of the British Empire, and in cases of earlier famines in India supplied rice was now part of the enemy Japanese Empire. Other provinces themselves refused to help Bengal but when the British Rac Central government forced them to help, they all complained that the British Raj Government is breaking the Government of India Act 1935. PM McKenzie King of Canada offered to send grain but Churchill argued that it would take a lot of time so instead ordered Australia to send 440000 tons of wheat to Bengal in the middle of a World War. He also did a grain swap with Sri Lanka or Ceylon. 50000 tons of grain blew up in Bombay docks. Viceroy of India, Lord Wavell on seeing the situation, called in the Indian Army in the middle of the war to distribute food. Since most of the soldiers were North Indians eating primarily wheat based bread or roti and most Bengalis were rice eaters, the population had to be trained. Also Hindu Marwari merchants were hoarding grain even when Bengalis were dying all around them as they were connected to Congress and wanted to destabilize the ruling Muslim majority party of Bengal, the Krishak praja Party.
Know real history not anti British Congressi propaganda.
@@prasheel_ashok_shetty bro it was a fucking cyclone. And the British+ Dominions shipped hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of tons of grain to India in an attempt to alleviate the famine while at the same time Britain was almost starving.
Being an Indian, I agree with you. important things to point out, every empire is evil, in past, it is in present and it will be in future.
Yeah, ALL empires, no exceptions
No there is a difference between degree of evil. Islam categorically teaches non believers as worse than animals. Same can't be said about hindu or Buddhist belief. Hindus welcomed even Jewish and persian refugees. Has any islamic country welcomed any non muslim refuge, thry don't even allow muslims from other sect.
He said only maurya United india, what about Maratha?? He just lied. Brits got it from them. Not from “broken” country. Having kingdoms isn’t broken. It’s normal. Europe has broken countries by languages even today.
Even with major differences, india is more united, even back then, they had relative peace amongst different people. It was NOT game of thrones like world back then. He just lied.
And he’s got no idea about d 45 trillion calculations. He was taught that Raj gave india modernity, not decimated textile, academic, naval/shipping, metallurgy industries.

I've found that the vast majority of "historians" don't say how muslims wanted to partition India, not the British.
Yes, partition was terrible and millions died and were ethnically cleansed from their homes, but no one asks and answers:
What would have occurred if there was NO partition?
I think the resulting war/s would have been far, far worse.
As an Indian you're right, the partition was needed or else india would have become another yugoslavia
you really think that? India has more than 200 million muslims still, are they still fighting against each other? Except politicians, I don't think anyone really hates muslims except because they are viewed as Pakistani and the media constantly discriminates against them. Muslim League was created by handful of landlord and Nawabs who felt that THEY wouldn't be represented, not the majority of the population. It's same as the Russian revolution where not the oppressed and underrepresented people fight for equality and justice,, but a handful of radicals that imposed their ideology to everyone.

He has a very Muslim bias opinion. They’ve always been a large minority in India that oppressed the non Muslim majority. Which is why India actually liked and accepted British Rule. As many of them were trading one oppressor a few hundred miles away for one several thousand miles away. That and British rule was far more relaxed.

Problem is that people forget the true definition of racism. Racism is a racial version of prejudice: A "preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience."
Racism is an irrational aversion or disdain of a group of people based on racial characteristics. He is irrational because it doesn't help him to dislike people based on racial characteristics, therefore making him racist.
However, I am not racist because my aversion to people based on racial characteristics is absolutely rational and justified, given how brainwashed and subversive so many people who look like him are, and from my experience of such people.
People like him are a danger to me, my culture and people, because nothing would make them happier than to see their group's perceived material and economic wealth, and number of people within their group surpass that of the native population - attoning the population of their racist colonial sins through being subjected to the same treatment (despite the fact that the victims of this treatment werent ever perpetrators in any colonialism, and certainly didn't kill off his group of people through the use of replacement migration as a weapon).

frankly this idea that we should be angry at a nation doing the old invasion, pillage and rape/conquering, after hundreds of Years is pretty funny to me. It'd be like me being annoyed and thinking the Norman's were evil for invading Britain, or the Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, or the various Germanic tribes that came over after the Romans as well as the Roman's themselves. Its just petty, and people such as he, who have very little actual issues in life, have all the time in the world to worry about it, whereas normal people don't.

Same goes to all colonisers like france or netherlands... French literally killed millions of algerians or belgium having human zoo in congo. Or how about US economy thriving during african slave trades. Look who benefitted the most... There is a reason why eastern european countries are far behind western europeans.
History is very important think a nations. It is unnecessary to label certain societies as monsters simply because of their past, I agree. But still, every nation should keep in mind its own past and what other states have done to their nation, so that similar situations can be prevented from happening again and they can maintain their independence. For example, the Japanese and the Americans may have good relations now, which is a good thing. But the Japanese have not forgotten and should always remember the atomic bombing of the Americans on Hiroshima and the millions of people who were massacred.

The expected casualties for an invasion of Japan were *in* the millions, far higher than the casualty rate that occurred that day, not to mention you need to remember the bomber pilots didn’t know what they were dropping. I remember hearing that a few committed suicide afterwards upon learning what they’d dropped due to the sheer destruction and death they’d just caused.
@@quimble2177 People die in wars, it is acceptable for the Americans to kill Japanese soldiers, and for those who die to be soldiers, due to the nature of war.

Even though the Japanese have good relations with America, they will forever know that the United States of America is the only country in history that has used the atomic bomb on civilians and legitimized it under some pretexts, so that the Japanese will always question their diplomatic relations with America and the honesty of America.

Im an Indian history student, while I disagree with the tik toker, India did have more than 20% of the worlds wealth, but that was even before the Muslims arrived, the Muslims simply used the wealth and trade networks that already existed, it was a rich land, but not necessarily a united land. Now as far as partition goes, British policies did have a huge influence, the rising educated class and Indian middle class were increasingly Nationalistic, The Brits feared a united Hindu Muslim front and did not want a second revolt like the 1857, and thus they utilised the existing rift between Hindus and Muslims, they did everything they could to prevent Hindus and Muslims from getting along and they succeeded, at the end of the day, the Brits were master strategists. And Lastly, India contributed so many troops to the British war effort because Gandhi and the Indian National Congress were absolutely against fascism, as oppressive as the brits were, they still werent brutal like the Nazis or the Japanese. Gandhi saw it as a war of morality where Germany could not be allowed to win, he urged Indians to volunteer in huge numbers, he even toned down protests and freedom struggle activities during the course of the war to allow Britain to focus on the war and not worry about losing India. So yeah, as bad as the tik toker was, you're slightly off the mark.

Most people that actually paid attention to history would notice that a lot of places that came more and more under foreign influence are often divided and squabbling well before first contact. The aztecs were still fighting other tribes and hunting them for sacrifices, giving natives plenty of incentives to help the non-blood sacrificing Europeans.
The Army of Cortez was pretty much 90% natives with some Conquistador Cavalry and Artillery.
The Spaniards/Europeans numbered less then 3000 soldiers while the Natives brought up to 200 000 warriors.
The Aztecs were absolutely despised by all their neighbours, when suddenly someone showed up from the ocean with strange beasts, metal equipment as well as things that go boom and cause explosions it wasn't really hard to convince them to join the fight against the ones who hunted everyone else for sport.
Sure we can take a far more cynical view that it was in all their self interest to take a rival down, but Cortez and his men could also very well be legendary warriors sent by heaven to defeat an evil Empire in someones epic tale from the past.
Yes Human Sacrifices were common in many Central American and South American cultures, but the Aztecs took it to a whole new level and excavation around their temples that discovered mass graves of sacrificed victims is pretty damning evidence that this wasn't made up by Christian clerics.
