Then for what people is it? I am saying the same. He could've released his greek soldiers and go forward with new soldiers from persia and India if he won that battle. He could've learned about new Elephant army and way of fighting. But he retreated and went away because he simply failed.

Their most memorable clash was at the Battle of Hydaspes (Jhelum) against the army of Porus, the ruler of the Paurava kingdom of western Punjab. For more than 25 centuries it was believed that Alexander’s forces defeated the Indians. Greek and Roman accounts say the Indians were bested by the...

I have many times accepted Indian ancestory in this thread as well as on every pdf thread where it was necessary. :lol: I am not proud to be a Rajput from UP. I am proud Pakistani and I don't disgrace those people of Pakistan who have no Indian ancestry. Pakistan first!

:no: That was just an example to show how west portrays history of world and themselves as good and great. :yes4: When Alexander came to India, he had soldiers full of Greeks, Persians army and Persian tribes. So they might be from soldiers of Alexander's army but it is likely that those...

We both Indians and Pakistanis are Indians. India was name of this part of the world. This word was adopted by Indians as their country name. Geologically, we can say that we are Indians but our Country is Pakistan and is in that part of world which is called India. Good Night!

Please stay on topic for now. Find some other thread for this discussion. What do you think about this? Did Porus won war or was it Alexander?

They didn't even know much about India then. I heard that Herakles was only one European before Alexander to travel to Asia. I have also heard that they didn't know about huge north pacific ocean in the east. I have seen some of maps around Alexander's time where there was no China in that map...

That is not what I was trying to say there buddy. I am sure there were some good references of Ptolemy I or even Philip III who became pharaoh of Egypt after Alexander's death.

Hi, Do you know when Battle of Hydaspes happened? Check this Wikipedia image. Now, do you know what source they used for this Wikipedia page of Battle of Hydaspes? Check this second image. Do you see something different? Yes, I am trying to show you references. Modern references are of...

In this comment, I am talking about Athens and Spartans fighting after defeating Xerxes. I never said that Alexander wasn't good but he wasn't that great. As I said before, he got control over Persia and Babylon because he was able to cut the head of snake i.e. killing king Darius and...

Why they adopted this name at first place?

Remember 300 movie where Greeks are shown as good people and Iranians as bad people? In reality, Greeks were bad people and Iranians were good people. Slavery was not allowed in all history of Iran before Islam. But Greeks were fighters and they loved it. After defeating Xerxes of Persia, riot...

If Alexander won that war then he could've used Indian way of battle in future. You know after conquering Persia, he came to India with both Persian and Macedonian soldiers. Well, Macedonian soldiers were exhausted after 7 years of war time but Persian army wasn't. If Porus became his ally then...

This is what your people said. You know many references were burnt after his death! He was defeated. Most of his men were on foot and they had no chance to win against Elephant army.

worst person ever

Ask your former supreme court judge. He is very famous these days! Remember beef eating thread some days back?

LOL, check last post of Vassnti. It will give you answer. But you do know that men use to hunt and eat in the past when there were no super markets or even building.

It is haram too. So what? PS: I am not Muslim.

Why do they print Quran verses on newspaper in first place? We all know newspaper go to trash. Isn't it disrespected then? This is no reason for all this. These so called Muslims don't even respect pages with Quran verses. There should be a ban on printing Quran verses on all such things which...

Yeah, we landed from heaven to earth :D
