The Indian Rebellion || 400 Years: Britain and India || Episode 7

[@somnathchanda1250]

250 years of British occupation was the most ruthless & bloody period in Indian subcontinent

[@charananekibalijaun8837]

Utter nonsense

[@RojaJaneman]

It was more like a century. Up until 1957 rebellion crown hadn’t taken over yet.

Great series that tells the truth about the British Empire. This should be part of every school curriculum in Britain.

[@gabbarsingh7182]

So what's going to happen to parts of the curriculum about tyrants, murderers, slave traders, rapists, pirates like captain Cook and Columbus they make our kids believe were hero's?

[@charananekibalijaun8837]

@@gabbarsingh7182 Cook was a pirate? Are you illiterate?

[@RojaJaneman]

This isn’t the truth

You guys should make more of these episodes for events all around the world. The brief overview of these stories are extremely informative regardless of their short length. Also, kudos to the editors. Good work.

2:29 - most important point. The British had Gun ships sailing across Ganga. That tells you the advanced weapons that they used. I had not heard of this before. Think how much we don't know.

[@DavidGS66]

I take the reported figures of looting with a grain of salt. The accounting is not clear. Looting happened, but most of India's taxes were used for war, not stolen in a conventional sense.

[@RojaJaneman]

Some of it very clear. The Mughals kept very good records.

[@FilesdocumentsAndreposit-kr3vb]

Tens of thousands of millions of tonnes of gold and treasury were stolen away from India.

[@karanacharya7689]

This is called the First War of Independence in India.

[@denverbritto5606]

Only by people who don't know much about history. Most Indians didn't support the rebellion.

[@RojaJaneman]

@@denverbritto5606most Americans also didn’t support Revolutionary War. It’s because only a small percentage of a population is brave enough to take on such tasks. Few leaders carry all d rest on their backs. It’s always been that way. Always will. As soon as they won however, lot more joined in. Yet, some remained loyal to d crown, for decades afterwards. There was a reason for having d Monroe Doctrine. Same with Bharath. They joined in and some remain loyal to d West till date. Such elements can never b truly removed from an equation.

Awesome . Long live revolution.

[@sirnigelfarage1177]

Sachin Badana which revolution?

[@SACHINKUMAR-zu6tl]

1857 first great revolution in india.

[@sirnigelfarage1177]

Sachin Badana 1857. India lost the war of independence. Therfore , 1857 was not revolution it was war.

[@SACHINKUMAR-zu6tl]

But it inspire indian national movement till 1947 a.d achieved india independent. You read Congress extremist ideology and ghadar movement of India. And Welcome for your slazing.

[@ak20k6]

We call it the First war of Independence (1857). The British like to tone it down and call it a rebellion. (Not my opinion, its a fact)

[@charananekibalijaun8837]

Parts of one of the 3 British Indian armies rebelled, the Bengal Army. Madras Army and Bombay Army weren't bothered. Why call it first war of independence? It was a mutiny of Brahmins and Kshatriyas of the Bengal Army.

[@matthewmann8969]

They had troubles rebelling against The Mughals and stuff

[@sirnigelfarage1177]

Mughal empire gave british control .

[@RojaJaneman]

No. Marathas had defeated them by the time Brits showed up on d scene

[@nani5987]

Nothing about the loot of India

[@charananekibalijaun8837]

There wasn't

[@iggybarrato9009]

Rebellions were created by the British, French, Dutch and Portugal in India and before they arrived India was conquered in the North by Persia (Iran).

[@RojaJaneman]

Wrong

[@moirangthemvishalsingh]

But we still love British culture and their inguinity through which they conquered

[@FilesdocumentsAndreposit-kr3vb]

You would. Most of us don't
