Half of the world’s poor live in just 5 countries

[Indus Pakistan]

Poverty is less in Europe and North America because they were never conquered or wronged by colonial powers. That should certainly be taken into account.

A weak, malnourished person is susceptoble to infection or being picked on by a predator. Point being you only get conquered or colonised because you were incapable of defending yourself which often relates to having poor economy. Meaning there is correlation between prosperous economies and military power. Most of the regions that were conquered and colonised were poor, backward and thus militarily walkovers. Being easily colonised is symptom of something, mostly poverty.

Just for the record North America was conquered and colonised by Europeans with Natives being genocided. Europe itself has on countless occasions been conquered and colonised -

• 
  
• Spain ~ Arabs
• France ~ Arabs
• Russia ~ Huns, Turks, Mongols of various iterations
• Romania - Turks
• Bulgaria ~ Turks
• Greece ~ Turks/Persians
• Serbia ~ Turks
• Macedonia ~ Turks
• Austria ~ Turks
• Moldovia ~ Turks/Tatars
• Ukraine ~ Tatars/Turks
• Scicily/Italy ~ Arabs

Notice I have excluded internal conquest by Europeans like Romans etc.

The British did many atrocities in British Raj era like Bengal famine or the Amritsar massacre.

Along with Moghuls, Persians, Sikhs and the other long list of conquerers.

We doing our job of reducing poverty, we are doing it by our own resources, without asking for dollars from all countries where it can be procured.

Are you guys not the biggest recipient of US aid dollars, boss??

Agreed with you. All empires may have done wrong.

But the difference @Indus Pakistan, is that the Persians and Mughals integrated in South Asian society.

The British did not. The British eventually saw themselves as outsiders.

 

[Indus Pakistan]

But difference @Indus Pakistan, is that the Persians and Mughals integrated in South Asian society.

The British were ruling from London. The Persians and Moghuls were severed from their 'home' and as such drowned in the pool. But do note both never really integrated but set up 'ghetto's within South Asia and asidiously followed differant trajectory from the native hindu population. So much so that even in 1930s they [some] still felt exclusive enough to demand treatment as separate civilization and culture thus giving birth to the idea of Two Nation Theory.

2NT busts your contention with integration.

I guess you are right about that one.

Terrible. Wow.

• India* has nearly 30% of the worlds poor making it a superpower.

*sub-continent

No shit. 30%? What happened to all those CEOs?

 

[Indus Pakistan]

No shit. 30%? What happened to all those CEOs?

Okay. Indian have -

• 30% of world poverty
• 25% of world open defecators
• 5% of the world CEOs
• 2.5% of world billionaires

 

[Han Patriot]

Pretty well represented I guess. Lol

Think of nearly 1.4 billion. Yes, 1,400,000,000. That number is apt to produce lots of statistical probabilities.

1. Microsoft CEO?
2. Google CEO?
3. A Steel magnate?
4. A IT genius or two?
5. Score of billionaires?

Right. But equally those statistical anomalies come with 30% of world poverty. India's problem is not that it does not have bright people. The problem is they are drowned by billion pool of genetic misfits and underclass that their own ruling elite understood. That is exactly why Hinduism has Dalits, Shudras etc.

Remember, there are also more indians than the ENTIRE White population of planet earth too.

Having a humongous population has two sides of the coin. If just 0.01% of the population[even Sub Saharan Niger*ans manage that] is extremely high IQ and well educated you will have a cream of the cream of 140,000 super cool Einstiens. The fruits of being huge are touted every day. How Microsoft CEO is Gangoo, how the most educated group in USA is Gangoo. How Mumbai has more billionaires then toilets - not sure if that makes sense but whatever.

But there is other side of the coin of being huge. And suddenly Indians want to use 'size' as excuse!

But Pakistan is huge in terms of population as well. Pakistan being the 7th most populous country and self proclaimed on PDF with “higher IQ and better genes” in South Asia including being the “cradle of civilization” should have A higher quality of “cream of the cream” as you put it. And it should show in the results by that logic no?
So what does Pakistan have to show for its performance in the world? Has its diaspora made huge strides compared to countries with similar population sizes or smaller?

Thoughts?

I swear if you guys see the real undiluted Shudra/Dalits the whole lot of yee will become honourable Hindus and embrace casteism. And feel sorry for the upper varnas.

The combined population of ALL those nations listed above is still significantly smaller than that of india's. The White race barely make it to a billion people world wide wheras the population of india alone is nearly 1.4 billion. To make it worst, all those 1,400,000,000 want to wipe out the Pakistani race and nation. That is scary.

Don’t think the marginalized folks in any country are worth envy. So why does this become any different for India or for that matter Pakistan?
