You have to listen to this! In 1947, Britain effectively abandoned its responsibility to India after a few hundred years of pillaging the wealth from the Asian subcontinent. We'll get to that... But part of trying to understand the events of 1947, is laying a foundation of what had happened in India and surrounding areas in the previous centuries. This episode is an introduction to the rich history of India, albeit much abridged, but enough to help understand what happened later. Learn a little bit about the empires that came before the British, the Mughals, the Marathas. There will be more coverage in the next episode in this series.
