- How India’s Spice Route Inspired G20 Corridor | Flashback with Palki Sharma
At last week’s G20 summit, the US, India and Europe announced an ambitious economic corridor.
The corridor, which passes through West Asia, is being called the new spice route.
Why has this 21st century plan triggered comparisons with an ancient trade route?
What was the ‘old’ spice route? Palki Sharma tells you on Flashback.

Do you think the new spice route will benefit India? Comment below and join the conversation.
Reality and truth about G20 is only related to adani ports and airways for adani businessman.......silk route only for showoff to india uneducated person but why is behind this is adani ports business
Yes, only on paper...😂😂😂😂😂
Why wouldn't any shipping go directly through Red Sea and Seuz Canal? This so called Spice Route is so retarded.
Which countries have the capability to build infrastructure across the Arab.
Are they awarding the infrastructure building to China?😮
Of course it will.
I am not sure about that it has potential to counter china's BRI, but it helps us to become "आत्मनिर्भर " because it's first phase is connecting India to Saudi and UAE, they are reliable partners to provide uninterrupted crude oil and now we are trading in local currency .
and in case of Europe, It have money to invest in India if we have a stable route for trade it will make more attractive for EU, in future we can boost our manufacturing sector and this route opens the market of EU and many more regions like Saudi ,UAE etc.
You are not a simple news reporter. You inform, educate, remove biased ideas about our past. Namaste to you.

India better work hard. If not China will catch up soon.

Just to help India?
If yes, the Arab will award the contracts to Chinese Infrastructure Companies.
Spices, apart from adding flavor and taste, were most useful as preservatives in an era when refrigeration was unknown.
Why does the reporter move both her hands synchronously with every sentence, she speaks? Is it a tick or bad manners. BTW spices don’t preserve food. It only adds flavour… it’s things like dehydration, sugar, salt and acid that preserve food I thought…
@@SeanAbbey Spices do preserve food, turmeric for one has anti bacterial properties. It is commonly used to make home remedies here. Cinnamon, Black Pepper as well. They are the reason Pickles are so popular in India.
@@SeanAbbey And by the way, your stereotypes are showing.
@@SeanAbbey Looks like you haven't read a damn thing about Spices. Spices have been used since ancient times. Although they have been employed mainly as flavoring and coloring agents, their role in food safety and preservation have also been studied in vitro and in vivo.
You just proved that you came from a backward Society. The Roman's described your backward society very well.
@@rishisharma5827 Sean the Abbey hypocrite himself proved that he's an illiterate of history and food preservation.
Vasco da Gama’s arrival was a bad omen for India. India’s downfall started from then. The Arabs who traded with India were like a gardner who merely plucked the flowers. But the European hoard uprooted the flowering plant that India was.
Arabs did not just send traders. They sent permanent resident occupiers.
@@PS-ej2xntraders tend to stay for months in a foreign land as the wind changes direction from season to season. sometime they also marry the locals. but they dont bring their army, unlike european.
@@rizkyadiyanto7922 Colonization requires both warfare and trade. Both Arabs and Europeans came to India to both trade and to conquer, as traders and as armies. The many centuries between the arrival of Mr Qasim to almost the period of Mughals could hardly be described as the period of Indo-Arab trade. It was the period of conquest and resident colonization of significant parts of India.
@@PS-ej2xn arabs =/= muslims. religion spreads because its better than the former religion. pakistan, iran, afghanistan etc arent ethnically arab eventhough theyre devout muslims. arab traders were mostly from yemen and they dont bring any war.
This man brought catholism and religious divisions in India.with him Jesuits came

Yep it's not rising.
Reclaiming, then rising!
THIS is why multiple entities wanted to capture SL and still do. Sri lanka played a huge roll in this spice route being THE centre of cinnamon and Theravada Buddhism along with gems, Sri Lankan war elephants (renowned back then) and other spices. Ancient deep water habours like Gokanna/Trinco and Godavaya had to host all the ships that couldnt cross shallow Palk straight.
I can watch n no. of flashback episodes designed by palki mam.
She encompasses each and every aspect of the topic; and garnishes it with her fabulous vocabulary. ❤
But the language which she used while in Gravitas+ was so engaging and interesting...
Fun fact the demand was so high for black pepper cultivated majorly in KeralaNadu that it became more expensive than Gold and people in Greece/Rome went bankrupt because of excessive consumption
😂😂😂
I finally found where you went Palki Sharma!
Wondered where you went when you left Wion
Greetings from London
Historic facts..Tamil and south indian traders were trading in SE Asia Africa. Middle East Europe..for more then 2000years..
They were in spice.. iron..bronze trading.
They created settlements and gave them Tamil names.
Arabs on started trading after Mohamad 800ad and went around the world
Facts and history are very important ...
We discussed about this in our last test glad that you covered it Today. Important for UPSC
I have a strong objection on that statement that the Arab were the middle man for the spice trade.. Even b4 that was jeswish traders! King Solomon had an active trade with the Malabar Coast. That was 970- 940 BCE.. that means around 3000 years ago Jewish traders came first to the Malabar coast for trade.. Arabs came much later.
New India and old spice route, a great combination, a win-win for middle east, Europe and India/Bharatavarsha
Malabar Coast and Present Day Kerala was the base of all Spice Trade - King of all spices- Pepper is indigenous to the place.
Sadly Kerala now nowhere features in major trade...
@@ashishsunny7963 except gold being brought in innovative ways from Gelf! 😂😂
@@ashishsunny7963 Agree but we are still a major brand in spices and rubber trading.
Fun fact the word Navigation comes from Sanskrit Naavik...meaning explorer
There is a slight difference, between the ancient Spice Route and IMEC, the ancient one skipped the Arabian Peninsula and chose the Red Sea instead.
Not only the Spices, but the Elephant Tusks, Turtle Shell, diamonds and Pearls, coloured cloth and arromatics were some items that were sent to Europe.
you are wrong! the ancient spice route went through the Arab peninsula but when the Romans took Egypt it then began to go through the red sea, mostly. the Muslim Arabs then conquered Egypt from the Byzantines/Romans.
When Vasco da gama landed in Calicut, he simply declared that this was the richest place on earth!
I believe the British had a very different assignment!
Yes and greedy chrisitans wanted steal it all with racists mentality
Really?I don’t think he ever said dat!
Vasco da Gama was the first Portuguese sailor who reached India. He reached Calicut in 1498.
The Portuguese came to India with the aim of establishing a monopoly over the spice trade. At the time the spice trade was dominated by the Ottoman Turks and the Arabs. 0:50 [Byju's]

India was the richest country for 10000 years till 1800s. And it will be richest again from 2100 onwards for the next 10000 years.
As you described, the European had changed the route avoiding Arab’s inland and established direct connections from European port(s) to Indian port in several times from Roman to age in of European exploration in 15th century then what’s the guarantee that they would not change the route in future if something happened. Europe has the records always been looking some lame excuses to backstab the agreement as we saw recently regarding China’s EV car manufacturing. Instead of improving their own technologies, qualities and reasonable prices, they started trade war with China as they did in past. Instead of negotiating the business terms with other nations, they they invaded foreign lands and colonized them. That’s the usual tactics by Europeans.
they will do it again where ever they go they first divide people into ethnic or language groups then create trouble. They never like big countries.(look how they cut Africa into pieces like a cake) they want small powerless nations that fight with each other for water other resources so that they can come and "help" then rule the world.
god bless India.
Dont worry now Bharat will give answer in their way we are capable enough to crush colonial mindset
@@lr0hitYup....lessons very well learned the hard way....but we now know the mindset of SOME Western people and will catch them by their tail if they try to play silly buggers
@@sanjayshah7776 agree with you 👍
Vasco da Gama
in his Ship ( St: Gabriel) reached india on 20 may 1498 in the southern state of india ( Kerala) in the district of Kozhikode the place he landed is known as kappadu ( a city in Kozhikode)
And thus changed the faith of customary trade routes and the myth which revolved around it.
Palki didi never fails to amaze us with facts, art of story telling is incredible.
Absolutely Correct Plus Well Presented With Historical Facts ❤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🇮🇳🌷🇮🇳👌
Lothal is one of the most prominent cities of the ancient Indus valley civilisation, located in the Bhāl region of the modern state of Gujarat. Lothal was one of the southern most cities of the Indus Valley Civilization. The port was constructed around 2200 BCE and is believed to be world's earliest known dock.
Any presentation is crisp, precise, and never fails to hold interest, that's Mrs Palki Sharma. It's embedded in your DNA. 😊 Thank you for yet another spicy news .
Excellent explanation Palki sharma ji….
I want you to stress more (or make a Seperate session) about reason why and how those spice hungry europeans turned from business traders to dictators…Multiple reasons behind that transformation, for instance one major reason is lack of unity between the kingdoms prevailed in those times, second being unwanted extreme tolerance levels of Sanathan Dharma followers, greedy mindset of the Europian royal powers, karma
Also focus on preserveing our culture all the wealth from getting looted again …because bad history should never repeat again
The simple reasons is they are thieves unlike Indians. Indians developed wisdom while Europeans are greedy.
Palki Sharma Best journalist ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great performance of Palki ji. 🎉
And then this spice route became nightmare for whole India!!! Rest is history🥲
Yes Portugese reached the base station of Spice Trade - Calicut ( Kerala) and colonised Goa . All other Europeans followed .
What an imaging video ..thanks ....
Waoooo.....so it's nothing but SPICE that attracted the invaders....I feel so uplifted to learn about the prosperous Mother 🇮🇳...I feel the time is too near when India will rule back the world as it was 2000 years a go...live long India❤❤❤❤
Even crossing the samundar would bhrast your caste. What are you talking about? Some spices and garments went from India to Europe. India had no role in it except as a source where arab traders came to India purchased spices and arabs did the rest.
It's not as if India had control over the route or dealt directly with Europeans Also Arabs consumed some things like perfumes, jewelry and fabric and war animals like elephants and sold horses and later on carpets to indian muslim rulers as hindus did not use carpets because of caste issues.
Arabs were good traders getting goods from fareast like Indonesia, north Africa India and setup markets in Damascus etc
We only know that they came to India for spices
But never clicked in Mind that there was a spice route too Far more important then silk route our textbook just flattered about a handful of guys only 😢
Thank you for such enlightening information🎉🎉🎉
The 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas devided the world map by the Pope Alexander 6th among Portuguese & Spanish neatly divided the "New World" into land, resources, and people claimed by Spain and Portugal. The red vertical line cutting through eastern Brazil represents the divide.
Palki😊. Respect 😁🙏
You are awesome lady bless you and your family for many years to come
I hope she stays for a long, long time. There is virtually nothing like her in the media today.
Very detailed historical episode by Palki Madam . 🙏

So informative and insightful. More content like this please!
Been watching firstpost for sometime. Good to see sensible media making a comeback. Very informative, well researched and well presented. Hope others take a cue.
Export from India dates back to as long as Indus and Mesopotamia civilizations.... TherIt didn't start with Alexander .
With this in mind, I searched the Sumerian literary works for possible clues and came up with the tentative hypothesis that Dilmun, a land mentioned frequently in the Sumerian texts and glorified in Sumerian myth, may turn out to be the Indus land or at least some part of it. According to a long-known Sumerian “Flood” -story, Dilmun, the land to which Ziusudra, the Sumerian Noah, was transported to live as an immortal among the gods, is “the place where the sun rises,” and was therefore located somewhere to the east of Sumer. In another Sumerian text, Dilmun is described as a blessed, prosperous land dotted with “great dwellings,” to which the countries of the entire civilized world known to the Sumerians, brought their goods and wares. A number of cuneiform economic documents excavated by the late Leonard Woolley at Ur-Biblical Ur of the Chaldees-one of the most important cities of Sumer, speak of ivory, and objects made of ivory, as being imported from Dilmun to Ur. The only rich, important land east of Sumer which could be the source of ivory, was that of the ancient Indus civilization, hence it seems not unreasonable to infer that the latter must be identical with Dilmun.
It is Believed that the word Tamilian became Dilmun. And the word Ur means Village in Tamil most other Dravidian Languages. This word Ur in Tamil arrived to the language from the sea farers who left to Mesopotamia from India.. Even now you could see the ones who are leaving to Foreign countries saying ""Naan Ur ke poran"" "Which means I am going to Ur.. I used to wonder why some one would say that he is going to Ur(Village) when going to a Foreign country.. In normal situations when you say village it is your own village. But Now it makes sense that the word Ur came from Mesopotamia . The ones who left to Ur( in Mesopotamia) said that they are leaving to Ur and that habit sticked with the later seafarers too..
A Word that was barrowed from Tamil or Dravidian to Mesopotamia is Ellu.. The Word for Sesame(Gingili)
It is possible that the Indus Valley civilization exported sesame oil to Mesopotamia, where it was known as ilu in Sumerian and ellu in Akkadian, compare Southern Dravidian Kannada eḷḷu, Tamil eḷlu.

Well researched @palkisu ji. Dhanyavādaḥ 🕉🇮🇳🇰🇪🇬🇧🕉
Palki, They were not Arab traders. They were Persians and Mesopotamia's. They became Arabs after adopting islam, much later.
If you mention 4000 yrs back or even 2000 years back. There was no islam.
All Arabs are not Muslims.
Arab is a ethnicity not religion. Even today there are many Arabs who are not Muslims
Arabs were Arabs before Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
please go back to school.
Persians are still Persians not Arabs and they controlled the silk road not the spice route which was controlled by the Arabs.
Ethnicity is a group of people who identify with one another based on a shared culture , not religion or skin colour.
You don't have to be a Muslim to be an Arab , there are Arab Jews , Arab Christians and Arab everything like in other ethnicities.
Arabs are an ethnic group from the middle east like the Turkic peoples , Kartvelian peoples , the Syriac peoples and the Muhacir peoples , the Persians belong to the Indo-Europeans peoples like the Armenians , Baloch and Kurds , the Mesopotamian peoples were the Sumerian , Assyrian , Akkadian and Babylonian and the Arabs belong to the Semites peoples like the Assyrians , Mandaeans and Jews.
That's very accurate and very simplistic explanation 🙌🙌
It will be so nice to see India economy doing great like before have not seen it bcoz i was born so late .
Palki, you the best in presentation. Your voice is crystal clear👍
Superb! May God bless you, Palki!

I hope this new sea-land route(IMEC) leads to India increasing its naval strength many folds as it will be required to safeguard this new economic route and reinvents India as a naval power it once was.
This was very informative. And by the end the pain re-evoked remembring the colonial atrocity.
