It was just about ending zamindari system which was incompatibe with new republican project. Rajputs/landholding castes didnt technically 'own' the land to begin with. They were mere revenue collectors and administrators of the estates farmed by farmers (feudalism 101) and simply lost their power.

STFU, no one is using nukes on their own land. And it depends all about who is demanding it.

I mean, if all Sikhs started demanding Khalistan, it’s very possible they could get it, because many Sikh generals and army officers would support them.

But they know Khalistan as a Sikh-Punjabi ethno-state is highly impractical and would be annexed by Pakistan in no time.

If the demand is feasible and you have backing it’s highly possible to get your own independent state.

Lmao, the common subjects didn't even know that they were being ruled by the British all this time.

the whole independence movement being "popular" is a misconception, whatever little mass support it had, specially mk gandhi's movements, they were all crushed by the government amd were infact irrelevant in 1947.

British left India on their own whim, and transferred power to tbe opportunists of the time, why do you think partition happened? because these opportunist parties weren't some ardent nationalists or whatever, they were simply politicians who wanted power, they didn't care of millions died in riots.

gandhi himself was a ideologycuck, the funnies t joke of all is the khilafat movement lmao, jeets were protesting for restoration ottoman caliph kek, and this is considered as le part of muh independence struggle, the turks themselves under ataturk were actually waging a real war of independence to establish a modern state of turkey.

More Jeets were employed under British Government to execute their will that were "fighting" for independence lmao.

At the time of Joining, Princely states of India were promises certain rights and privileges, and it was all mandated by the constitution, however later on Indira Gamdhi removed a lot of these provisions and their power declined, it was a betrayal, many bhangis complain why erstwhile royal houses still conduct coronation ceremonies, but they don't know that the constitution literally gives them right to do so, even after the dilution.

Congress Government Under Nehru and Indira Raped the constitution actually, the first amendment diluted the right to equality by allowing reservations, TN high court high court had declared caste based reservation unconstitutional, many don't know this but they also removed right to property from list of fundamental rights from the constituon in 1978.

bhangis think it was lundebedkar who wrote the constitution and gave them reservation but it was BN Rau who formed the India's constitution and it had no provision for any sort of caste based reservation, it was Nehru who brought the first amendment that allowed reservation to SC/STs, later on in his life Nehru realised his mistake, because soon reservation became a political tool.

many don't understand but it never really started for the country.

Bhai there was no coherent idea of India even back then, politicians were fighting for power over their own imagined states, princely states were worried for their own future.

You are acting as if the congress was directing tbe power transfer, they weren't, the whole deal was mediated by the British governer who actually had the power, congress was just another party in the deal, there was no revolution that over threw the British Raj or the pricely states, infact most kings were popular among their subjects.

Congress government later on betrayed the terms of the agreement, and yeah then the kings were powerless, because they had already given away their states.

Many popular former royals became politicians and won elections, so i dont see how being stripped off privileges was bad. If you want to continue ruling and feel are popular just get elected rather than being entitled brat and demanding muh monarchy. Also everything is fair in power struggle.

Most pan Indian empires barely lasted a decade once they expanded southwards. The only one that did was Gupta Empire and they mostly relied in tributeries down South to maintain stability while uniting most of the North. Most of the other empires too were able to maintain stability when they existed mostly as a North Indian Empire.

I can see a pan North Indian federation emerging but since they won't have much access to the ports, their international influence will be less and Southern countries will most likely be bought under Chinese influence instead.

Thats how you make empires in premodern times. You cant rule all areas directly even today which is why we have federalism. India has always preferred decentralized empires unlike han china. It is literally in our blood and national character to have decentralized empires just like it is in the national character of the chinese to always revert to mandate of heaven(currently possessed by CCP) after a period of bloodshed.

You are just nitpicking. Most large countries had multiple cycles of rise and fall of empires in india. When people claim there was no india before brits saar and are shown historical examples of pan indian unity they always shift goalposts about what count as 'unification'. I dont see them doing the same for other countries. No one questions unity of china, persia and japan that too had lots of infighting historically and were unified by foreign origin empires multiple times.

People do actually question the unity of all three mostly because persia was fragmented, I mean persia is not even a thing any more. The only true exception would be Japan because Sengoku era was dedicated to actually united all islands as a one nation with some purpose of uniting nation at all cost rather than ruling it. I like to think it was possible due to such a small size of the nation, which would have been case in India after Mauryan or Maratha empire too

Its so obvious when you dont see any other map shown with this 'le network core model'. Somehow british empire has australian desert when in reality they only ruled the southern coast. Archaemenid, mongol empire etc all are shown as one solid mass but mauryans are being singled out. It is gonna reach a point where only magadha is shown as mauryan territory and only the various routes are shown under mauryan control.

No one pretends like China as it's now it's united for most of history. People only argue that Han China(Pic related) was united. While arguing that any other part of China today was united for a long time is just cope reading of history.

Same for 'Persia'(Which btw is only 50% of Iran in reality).

Japan is different because they always had a united king but different generals controlled different regions, it's comparable to state of Germany, which are one ethnicity fighting over different rulers.

Our situation is similar to China. Core Hindustan(Region above Vindhyas and below Himalayas) have had always relative stability, cultural continuity and far more unity than. If you argue this region had lots of unifying empires, I would agree.

But to argue regions also came under such unity is just cope reading of history, just like chink nationalists claiming Tibet because of old unstable maps.

True, they evaded this by making the ruler that is the emperor a figurehead who met the religious obligation while warlords did their own thing with no consideration, it was only under Oda Nobu it changed, leading to one of most brutal war with idea that they should have a war to end all the wars.

I know exactly what you are going through. Just because people recognise one region as a single united geographical region doesn't mean that region will unite by its own accord automatically.

In fact the opposite, most such regions were united externally by an invading force.

You bring up China, but the actual middle kingdom is just the South Eastern part of China today. No one other than coping chink nationalists recognize other parts of China as 'China' but as external nationalities brought under Chinese rule.

Same for Persians, only the central part of the nation is actual 'Persia'. Even Iran recognize this and use Iran as their name instead of Persia.

Just because these meme nationalities and cope reading of history exist don't mean everyone doing the same would also be correct.

India wasn't a unified sovereign state with a unified sense of commonality before the British. Better now?

>UK

>Saudi Arabia

They weren't. Until Britons united for former and British unified the latter.

Is Arabia(Generic name for Arab nations) a country before? We had pan Arabic empires before. You see now the problem with applying modern definitions?

>China

It was called middle kingdom, I don't think anyone refers it to a country in modern sense.

And they were united by a shared sense of cultural belonging that existed throughout the region, THAT did exist in MOST of NORTHERN INDIA but not the entire subcontinent.

Do you believe people in Punjab are closer to people in Tamil Nadu culture wise than they are to people in Pakijab?

I would definitely argue though people in Punjab are closer to people in Western UP than they are to Pakijab. And they're definitely closer to UP in culture than they're to Pashtuns despite latter being closer geography wise.

That is how cultural continuity looks like. And that kind of continuity is only seen in vast plain regions like South East China and North India.

My issue is when people misuse this historical fact to claim cultural continuity with regions that were geographically seperated like Chinks do for Tibet. South Indians(Once again not a dravidabhangi, because I believe Dravidian is a fake identity and should be recognised as 4-5 different ethnic groups), Marathas, Pashtuns, North Easterners, they're not really 'core Indians' but adjacent culturally similar groups like Manchus and Mongolians in China.

This is called shifting goalposts. Wtf is unified sense of commonality? We are very diverse for there to be a monoculture but whatever pan indian commonality we have like hinduism/vedicism, sanskrit as civilizational and liturgical language, concept of sacred geography/bharat far predates the british. If you are arguing what constitutes a 'nation'(a people with common heritage) then that is separate from concept of 'country'(a geopolitical entity). Nevertheless, the fact remains brits didnt create this commonality, if any, either. It far predates them. If anything the only reason they were able to maintain stable functioning government here was because indians were already accustomed to running large state apparatus.

Mauryans, mughals, guptas, marathas all ruled 60 to 90% of subcon for centuries. At times you would have a northern and a southern dynasty ruling half of the subcon akin to chinese northern and southern dynasties.

Civilizational unity existed independent of any empire. Why do you think tamil cholas were calling themselves aryaputra, patronizing sanskrit and fetching water of ganga to commemorate their digvijay if there was no cultural unity whatsoever?

That's very vague. For reference, Northern India is just around 70% of the subcontinent.

I was specifically asking for those that did unite vast majority of the area(~90%) and managed to maintain the rule for around a century.

It's funny you bring up Mauryans and Marathas when their rule was marred with instability after instability and there were other lesser known empires that ruled over 60% that did last around a century but I guess since they don't show them in cbse books as 'saar pan Indian Empire before brits saar' they're irrelevant.

And please don't tell me Mauryas, we didn't even know they existed before brits discovered Ashoka's stupa and people actually believed Sandrokottus of Alexander's texts referred to the Gupta king Chandragupta before it.

>Why do you think tamil cholas were calling themselves aryaputra, patronizing sanskrit and fetching water of ganga to commemorate their digvijay if there was no cultural unity whatsoever?

Please don't deflect sirs, I wasn't arguing nobody in the subcontinent wanted to claim divine noble heritage from le glorious ancestry. It's the reason why our history was so fucking mess because every one wanted to larp as suryavanshi or chandravanshi and got rid of any fact that might counter such claims.

I am done with all these shifting goalposts and nitpicking. Believe whatever you want. Its all subjective interpretation of history at the end of the day.
