Why Muslims and British did not ban caste system?

[kankan326]

1, Caste was very common thing around world during Muslims rule. Even China had caste by then. Not a big deal.
2, Caste was good for British governing India during colony time.

Looked up Sumer, Brittanica.com. They say the same thing I guessed: "The people called Sumerians, whose language became the prevailing language of the territory, probably came from around Anatolia"

Another evidence is that Turkey, Azerbaijan and Armenia claim the flood and Prophet Nuh's story.

This is one of the proposed theory to help solve the Sumerian puzzle but not the only.

There is no clinching evidence for it.

There are living descendants of them.
Anyway, what is the other theory. They came from Yemen? Not likely. Yemen is the home of original Arabs [Semites].

Probably meant Clans?

There is no hierarchy between the clans of the Han people, they are all equal.
Ethnic minorities cannot represent China.
And after the cultural revolution, all clans disappeared.

Wow y'all killed out entire clans?
In Pak clans not castes (although in some places it intermingles but for large part they're just clans) are still part of society

Urbanization has severaly impacted this clan system but it's still an issue in rural areas

So it's weird to see an entire revolution was carried our to clear this clan business

What?

Ming dyasty had hereditary low class people called "贱民”.

The Cultural Revolution allowed the peasants at the bottom to step on the neck of the provincial Party secretary.
Such behavior completely destroyed the prestige and dignity of officials, clan chiefs and other original authorities. Of course, the clan can't continue to exist.
Those little childs pee in the mouth of the clan leader. When they grow up, can you make them respect the clan leader?

After the cultural revolution, the Chinese people have completely changed. They despise all strong power, distrust authority and only believe in their own.

Look at the picture. A group of farmers arrested the governor of Guangdong Province and the Secretary of the provincial Party committee and beat them:

2020, there are 130 million people in Guangdong Province, GDP US $2 trillion.

Discrimination on the basis of caste is illegal in India.

Untouchability is banned since 1950, you can go to jail for a long period in India for using a casteist slur,unlike in Pakistan where blasphemy laws are used to kill basically anyone.

These people are more like criminals. The punishment of Zhang Shicheng's followers in the Ming Dynasty.

Still it was caste. Brahmans were war winners too.

If you must insist that this is a caste, all right.
But there are only two caste classes, and the population of lower castes is so small. Isn't that a little strange?

Looks good on paper but 16% Dalits have never made it to PM, COAS, head of R&AW. Only in 2006 a dalit was made chief justice it became a news. Dalits still get killed if they touch upper caste hindus, drink water from their areas or enter into their temples. India has a structured bias against Dalits.
