please don't equate British people today with the British Empire's disgusting excesses, the aristocratic class treated the working people in the UK the same way. Google The Marquess of Bute and fall down the rabbit hole 😉
Hopelessly biased and inaccurate. Population of India including Pakistan/Bangladesh in the 12th century was around 330 million, half the world at the time. After 5 centuries of Islamic invasions and conquests the population had fallen to 140 million by the start of the 18th century. The largest attempt at genocide ever. In less than 2 centuries of British rule the population had reached over 380 million. From Wikipedia. "The British Raj invested in infrastructure including canals and irrigation systems.[42] The Ganges Canal reached 350 miles from Haridwar to Cawnpore, and supplied thousands of miles of distribution canals. By 1900, the Raj had the largest irrigation system in the world. In all, the amount of irrigated land rose eightfold. Historian David Gilmour says:[43] By the 1870s the peasantry in the districts irrigated by the Ganges Canal were visibly better fed, housed and dressed than before; by the end of the century the new network of canals in the Punjab had produced an even more prosperous peasantry there." Indian GNP actually increased, the share of world trade is misleading as other countries which had industrialised such as the UK and USA became much richer, rather than India becoming poorer. The british did lots of awful things, but they brought about a huge improvement over what had been happening over the previous 500 years.
You p@thetic c0l0nial apologist have your wiki😂. L0nd0n had become a sh1thole. Good. P@kistani gangs are gr00ming your ch1ldren, good. The fact that you cherry picked some random stats from a small district is hilarious. We know the stories. Our grandparents lived it. I guess you just went to wiki to pick up points that won't make you feel bad. Get fuck3d p1gsk1n.
My comments are getting deleted. Well, I'll just say this. No amount of apologist stats you cherrypicked is going to replace the lived experiences and the infra and stories our own grandparents have lived through and shared with us. We will make sure our children know the history and what you p1gskins have done. We will be awaiting your replacement. Buckleup inbr33d

I hope british citizens go through EXACTLY what the Indians experienced under british rule.
