Sri Lanka has a higher literacy rate, a higher GDP per capital and a higher HDP index(Human Development index) than Pakistan, Bangladesh and India even though all 4 countries were former British colonies. But what are the reasons for that? Are there historical reasons or cultural reasons...

Its shameful that India, which was ruled in the past by some of the greatest kings in world history like Ashoka, Chandragupta II, Harsha, Raja Chola, Akbar and Shivaji, is today ruled by a puppet and an Italian bar girl. A real lion like Narendra Modi should become the next pm. Even the...

Mahadaji Shinde was a Maratha ruler of the state of Gwalior in central India. Mahadaji was instrumental in resurrecting Maratha power in North India after the Third Battle of Panipat in 1761, and rose to become a trusted lieutenant of the Peshwa, leader of the Maratha Empire. During his reign...

Yes, you are right. Ranjit Singh defeated the Afghans.

Its not surprising that Pakistan lost all 3 wars against India. Pakistan never had any great warriors in the past. And the Pakistanis still worship the Arab invader Bin Qasim who conquered parts of Afghanistan and Pakistan as their greatest war hero. This is pathetic. The Indians celebrate...

This doesn't make any sense. There were greater mathematicians in ancient and medieval India than in ancient China like Aryabhata, Madhava, Brahmagupta and many more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryabhata https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madhava_of_Sangamagrama...

This is doubtful. One of the greatest kings of 18th century South Asia was a Shudra (lower caste). He conquered the major part of northern India and even defeated the British. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahadaji_Shinde

He is the reason. He will be the Maharaja and the Chakravartin of India.

The Arab scholars like Sulaiman and Masudi who visited South Asia in the 9th and 10th century were very impressed by the rulers of the Rashtrakuta Dynasty who were also known as Ballahara kings. According to the testimony of the Arab travelers, the followers of Islam who had settled down as...

I don't get it. Why do Pakistanis want to build a statue for Porus. Porus lost the battle against Alexander and didn't achieve anything. Its understandable if people from Bihar want to build a statue for Chandragupta who defeated the Greek invaders or if people from south India decide to build a...

The Mughals were destroyed by the Marathas.

The Vijayanagar rulers called the rulers of the Bahmani Sultanate Turks. In fact all the Deccan Sultans were considered Turks by the Vijayanagar rulers. And thats the reason why Krishnadevaraya received the title "destroyer of the Turks" after defeating the Deccan Sultans.
