Actually India was rich before the Mughal Empire as well, the period of the Guptas Empire was literally called as the Golden Age, they contributed around 32 to 35 percent of total world GDP
Ah yes here they come the annoying folks who don't want to recognise the good things that Mughals did for this country of ours. Invaders or not they fixed a lot of stuff in our country that previous rulers weren't doing
So there werent strong local kings ?? We literally had the strongest army even before your so called "peaceful" rulers came to India @@mohammeduzair7796
@@mohammeduzair7796 Just think before you comment something stupid, you read the above comment and just couldn't handle the truth, just stupid. Now for your question, Guptas, Marathas, Cholas and many more were the emperors who were the natives of the land, they either got the empire from their ancestors generation after generation and also by conquering the other kingdoms. However, this was very different from how the mughals or the british took the empires, they used dirty tricks and betrayal of allies. Like how britishers came to India as traders but eventually took us as their colony, same way mughals were defeated by Indian kings many times but they bribed the military leaders in the army of the kings which caused the mughals to take over India
@@mohammeduzair7796Adding to that, When mughals came into power they destroyed the Hindu culture and religion to show their god as supreme and to convert all the people to muslim. They even destroyed Hindu Literature (like the Libraries of Takshila and Nalanda) and also the Hindu Temples which are now being discovered under Masjids in India.
Bro don't forget the most important point in part 2 when brtis was leaving India they played their last game i.e divide and rule between 2 casts in the nation and sadly it still working
We did that from the beginning. The castle system was dying out but we were a tiny country and used it so the Indians could be suppressed. Standard behaviour in an empire Tiny number of Brits couldn't have done it without Indians.
Oldest rig veda texts were from 15th century, where cast systems was mentioned, don't forget manusmriti, chah-nama and Buddhist genocide by Shankaracharya and pushyamitraa samsamgha, demolition of Nalanda University. Texts from kabirdas, kalidas, Tulsidas which confirms existence and practice of caste system by Brahmins. It was Britishers who found out about existence of Indus valley civilisation, which is India's actual history.
Hello omar i want to tell you that India was even rich in the Gupta empire the Maurya empire chola empire marata empire I think you can made video on richest countries in each century
@omaragamyy Thank you for the efforts. Big fan of your channel. But I just wanted to clarify that it wan NOT the mughal empire when india was called the golden bird. When Bharat was under mughal rule (before btitish) its gdp had already declined to the worst and also there was so much social discrimination going on against the hindus. They already drained and looted our wealth and so much of our temples were destroyed and nalanda library (that contained books with precious knowledge) was burnt down. Mughals were just invaders. Who themself contributed to the downfall of both- economy and social knowledge. There is a reason why India has been the most invaded country since past.
Omar you forgot to mention that those mughals destroyed many temples which were very sacred to Hindus. You are just trying to cover up mughals as righteous rulers. FYI the Indian civilization was far more ancient than Egyptian civilisation, not to forget the fact that it's a shame to Egyptians who were not able to protect their religion or civilization from Islamic invasion, but India never lost their religion to mughals or British like native Australians, newzealander, Americans or Canadians. They survived the change and resisted invasion against religion. This alone can prove the efficiency of Indians.
@Terifix Nice joke! BEFORE the Islamic Golden Age, there was a Dhaarmic Golden Age. People were building stuff (until the caliphate decided to bomb stuff). Everyone here was avoiding full fledged wars because the history of Kurukshetra was well known. This caused internal disturbances which Ghori and Ghaznavi took advantage of. They couldn't even keep up with Gurjar Pratiharas for centuries. Check the dates on first attack and then the first success. Oh and BTW, even Alexander himself retreated from the banks of Indus.
@@Horopter Uhm yes Ghori and Ghaznavid werent good people I agree. But that dosent mean u blame muslims. The first Muslim attack in the subcontinent was from Muhammad Bin Qasim as the governer of Sindh at the time refused to return the kidnapped women that were on trading boats that were trading with India. So a 16 year old Muhammad bin Qasim fought with the governer of Sindh and annexed Sindh. Later other Muslim rulers came but after Ghori and Ghaznavid which were mainly in Afghanistan areas btw came other muslim rulers that prospered india.

@@sonisingh5296yes true. And before the Mughal era, India was scientifically developed too. And there was gender equality. Women used to learn everything along with men. Although there were casts, but not the extreme discrimination like now
@@sonisingh5296could you please share the source for this fact? If you check google, there is a WIDE amount of varying information on VARIOUS different websites, including many official government ones. The ai overview for google however, digs through these and says Mughals increased it. (When I asked google did the Mughals increase or decrease India’s GDP) Also, the Mughals were a huge plus factor in boosting India’s trade. This would probably end up for india contributing a higher amount to world gdp.
@Maringa609 Well, in our old scriptures, we have the definition of Bharat (native name of India) as "all the land starting from the Himalayas upto the sea coasts". So the NE comes under that probably. Anyways, the NE had people and rulers, who were culturally rooted to India, so that can be considered still under India before The Independence.

That was just a small start you should read about Mysore kingdom (they created Mysore rockets) basically was three time more richer than rest of India and the Sikh Empires they basically had a European army
Thanks Omar, this taught me a lot in half an hour. As an Indian in the USA, school doesn't teach much about my nation's history, but in half an hour I learnt about one of the largest events that shaped my country as it is today bc of u.
There was peace for sometime but there were also persecution of hindus and Sikhs by alot of rulers. Another thing to note is that even before mediaeval era, india held a super large portion of world's economy and it actually went down by 7-10% in medieval period, guess spices, fauna, agriculture,rare metals,textiles helped alot
The British gradually took control of India through a combination of military conquest and strategic alliances, ultimately displacing both the Mughal and Maratha powers. By the early 18th century, the Mughal Empire, was weakening due to internal conflicts, succession struggles, and invasions. While the Mughal emperor remained a nominal figurehead, the empire's control was fragmenting, creating power vacuums. During the Mughal decline, several regional powers, most notably the Marathas, rose to prominence. The Maratha Empire expanded rapidly across large parts of India, challenging Mughal remnants and other powers. At the same time, European colonial powers, including the British, the French, and the Dutch, were vying for control of trade and territories along the coast. The British East India Company began to expand its influence, initially in alliance with local rulers but later through direct military confrontation. The Anglo-Maratha Wars (1775-1818) were a crucial part of this. After defeating the Marathas in a series of wars, the British effectively dismantled the Maratha Empire by 1818, which had been one of the most powerful regional players in India. The British, after weakening the Mughals and defeating the Marathas, gained control over vast regions of India. While the Mughal emperor technically remained in Delhi until 1857, the British East India Company exercised real power. Following the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the British government took over direct control, marking the start of the British Raj.
mughals invaded an already rich india...their rule was cultural decline and economic and innovative stagnation...if not for the mughal colonisation...i doubt the british cud take over.
@@pradnyasuryawanjare4819 you know what i mean...the things i said for the mughals apply to all 300 years of sultanates..afterall it was khilji who burnt nalanda..the wealth and skills that made wealth were all created by the natives..
In this very comment section they are yapping constantly about Hindu Rashtra this Hindu Rashtra that 💀 bruh I can't stand these folks, they really think that the Mughals didn't contribute anything. Also what is the point of comparing Mughals with Mauryan and Gupta when those two older empires perished
@Aman_Mondal ok fine then tell me what did the Mughals contribute for the common masses except for monuments which they made for themselves. You are probably just brainwashed bro. Even the previous delhi sultanates were better than the good-for-nothing Mughals. Muhammad bin Tughlaq did more and any of the "glorious" mughal dacoits could do in their lifetimes. If mughal did anything for the masses like paving roads, building schools(for all communities), hospitals, introduce new and efficient farming techniques, Feel free to mention
@Aman_Mondal at least Mauryan and Gupta empires did things for common indian people unlike the Mughals who used to send caravans full of wealth from your and my country to some village near Mecca
Mughal Empire wasn’t what’s around when British came Its Hindavi Swarajya, which means "self-rule of Hindus" - Shivaji Maharaj defeated Muslim rulers and established Hindu Rashtra India's GDP was estimated at 25.1% of the world economy in the 16th century, and 24.3% in 1600 AD. However, colonial rule transformed India into an exporter of raw materials and importer of finished goods, and the country's GDP declined to 3% by 1950 Our textbooks distorted all this so much that we are relearning everything. Since you just started explaining things in simple terms, may be this will help. Thanks for simplifying and explaining these complicated and distorted subjects
@@NoobGamer-ki9pz no it is not true British only started gaining control once the Marathas split and were weak. British tried to invade India from way before but Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his son Chattrapati Sambhaji Maharaj stopped them and Marathas were at their peak only after Marathas started declining they lost to British but even in their decline they fought 3 wars with British in which 2 of them won and only in 3rd war did the British win.
@@santhoshv3028 I am an Indian and I have studied my history by ACTUALLY visiting real palaces and forts. I have seen temples with 80 ton stones placed 200 feet high up in the sky. Many more examples so am not the one who needs to be educated. The fact is the real history of India has been systematically erased by the British and everything they left behind is the reason why most of India is underdeveloped. But that's changing
@AlfiereRavelo I feel sorry for you, because you have been deliberately shown the bad side of India because it's considered cool. I live in Mumbai, city which has a GDP of around 200 billion dollars and never have I once seen a person shitting on streets. Am not saying it doesn't happen but it happens even in America's LA. The problem is you guys have only seen one side of story and I don't blame you. We used to be 30% of earth's GDP so the way British managed to keep this country poor is by dismantling all of the education and spirtual centers.You can continue the stereotype against Indians all am saying is, it's gonna hurt when India recovers back to her former glory
@V01DIORE those famines were not natural. They were created by the British. Especially the Bengal Famine. When asked to send food which was plentifully available, the British instead asked "Why isn't Gandhi dead"
An edit - our golden age Was in Gupta empire or you can even say mauryan times when india shared 33% of global GDP. With islamic invasion it declined but slowly by the time of mughals it was 25% of global gdp
Yes true. And also that time we were scientifically and socially more developed than Western countries. There was gender equality and women did not use to go out covering their face or entire body. That whole thing started at the sultan era and the Mughal era only

Correction during Mughals era india's gdp went down not the other way around and you can confirm this fact with google Before Mughals India's gdp was 32% but during Mughals era our GDP went to 24% (I don't know why people think opposite of truth)
@@sonisingh5296 I'm a history student from oxford and when I here something like this i laugh too hard bjp/rss is brainwashing you. There were only two mughals ruler which were using politics like they used to break temple, mosque and sometime build it one ruler was more harsh on it, and all this was politics like the bjp do. Also india was golden bird during mughal era as the GDP was highest ever with the area expansion.
@@sonisingh5296 also maurya empire was also used to demolish temples, ashoka killed all his brothers family to become king and to conquer indian subcontinent and after he became Buddhist and stoped violence he was not less then mughals nor more them too. Indian history is too rich but read from books not political party! 🙃
India was 30% of earth's GDP before Mughals and after the Mughals took over India fell to approximately 20-25% of earth's GDP and after British rule India was less than 2% of earth's GDP with a 0.01% growth from 1750 to 1947
Well, it have to do with other economies industrializing and more economic markers opening up. Actually Mughal India was richer than Mauryan India considering Mughal Taxed way more than Native rulers did. The wealth looted by the Mughals was kept in India whereas some other Muslim Afghan Conquers did only just loot. So, yeah, you get the point.
@@sushilkumarlohani6709 Am not talking about the nominal GDP figures. Even modern India has a higher nominal GDP than Mauryan or Mughal period. What am talking about is the share of India's GDP in the world economy. That used to be 30% and is now around 3%
Brother you mentioned just one state who fought against the british. It happened everywhere in India, in the following order Battle of Plassey Bengal (including Calcutta) 1757 Battle of Buxar Bengal, Bihar, Orissa (further consolidating British control in Bengal) 1764 Third Anglo-Maratha War Maratha territories, including large parts of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Gujarat 1817-1818 Anglo-Nepalese War Kumaon, Garhwal, and Terai regions (territories ceded by Nepal) 1814-1816 First Anglo-Sikh War Punjab (territories of the Sikh Empire) 1845-1846 Second Anglo-Sikh War Full control of Punjab and annexation of the Sikh Empire 1848-1849 Indian Rebellion of 1857 Large parts of North India, including Delhi, Lucknow, Kanpur, and Jhansi (re-establishment of British authority after the rebellion) 1857-1858 Annexation of Oudh (Awadh) Oudh (now Uttar Pradesh) 1856 Anglo-Burmese Wars Burma (Myanmar) - Arakan, Tenasserim, Upper Burma 1824-1826, 1852, 1885 Annexation of Sindh Sindh (in present-day Pakistan) 1843 Annexation of Assam Assam and the surrounding regions (now part of northeastern India) 1826 Anglo-Mysore Wars Mysore (after defeating Tipu Sultan) 1799 (after 4 wars) Anglo-Maratha Wars Maratha territories, including much of central India and the Deccan 1775-1818 Treaty of Seringapatam (1792) Seringapatam (Sultanate of Mysore) 1792 Treaty of Lahore (1846) Jammu and Kashmir (controlled by Dogra rulers under British suzerainty) 1846
Indian products were highly sought after even during the Roman Empire, not just in the 16th and 17th centuries, but also during the Mauryan and Gupta eras, when the Indian region was the wealthiest, followed by China (Han, Tang, Qing).
@julianshepherd2038 I do not lie. Have you been through the British school system ? I assure you certain areas of history are not taught in a balanced way especially regarding collonialism .
I want to correct this: It was the Maratha Empire, under the rule of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj,his descendents and the Peshwe that finished the mughals in India and they made India united during 1700s, the British took India from the Marathas not Mughals. By the time the British declared reign the mughals were alrwady finished
Mughals did not make India rich, India was far richer before they invaded. All they did was mooch off of the land and decreased our wealth. Maurya and Gupta empire was our peak.
Bro that’s so cool. To have the culture of a country that colonised and got colonised I think is the coolest position on earth because it means you can mediate both sides.
There is also something to add at last: After Mir Jafar was handed over the Nawab throne few months later he himself started ignoring the orders of British and was creating his own empire but eventually Britishers saw this and Mir Jafar was overthrowed from his post for Mir Qasim. Further Qasim also started to ignore Britishers and fought a war against them called The Battle Of Buxar with aligned forces of Qasim and then state Awadh aginst the British which they lost and the British took the full power of Bengal.

Mir Zafar (Who Bengalis hate) was the main reason for British colonization in India. The Brits had made a few agreements with him and said they will give him loads of money if he sells his empire (Nawab of Bengal) to the British. The Nawab of Bengal was able to defeat the Brits but sadly got betrayed.
hey omar your video is cool buuuuuut i would like to say that you shouldve added that india was known as the golden birb wayy before mughals. okay, the mughals may have done a lot of prosperous stuff too. but lets not forget they forced their ways here AND besides the good stuff they did, i remember learning they ruined just as much too. some examples would be our BEAUTIFUL AND RARE temples, our NALANDA and other UNIVERSITIES and they killed pretty lot of people too. anyways good video keep it up
They didn't done any good stuff here bro which good for people they imposed zamindari system,jizia tax,forced conversion system and etc they made taj Mahal and palaces for them selfs at same the there was famine in Gujarat and maughal didn't even given a shit to the people

Hey Omar, I like the video but there is actually a lot more stuff that I believe should have been added as Battle of Plassey and Battle of Buxar only ensured control over northern and north eastern parts of India (though they were the richest ones). Events like the Anglo Maratha wars (another betrayal story) should be mentioned as the Maratha Empire controlled the majority of India in the 18th century. Anglo Mysore war gave South India to the British. Anglo Sikh wars gave north western parts to the British. And last but not the least, debt ridden Indian kings losing territories to the British. Well anyways keep up the good work!
Mughals were also invaders our rajas were far better than them it was Mughals who created stuff and all they were bad actually kinda except akbar and then the kings fought with them england came in between and changed everything I feel kingdom rules were better they ruled as if the people of the kingdom were their kids and the one who didn't do like that, were killed by good kingdom kings and everyone were happy our pure and true history gives goosebumps fr
0:45 It is proven that during the Mughal rule, our GDP decreased ALOT. It was due to many reasons, the one i can remember is that the emperors gifted the revenue collected in India to muslim countries in the middle east. Not only that they TORTURED Hindus. Destroying our temples and looting them, they killed many people too. They applied a tax named "Jaziya", which was basically a tax payed by Non-Muslims for pilgrimage.
The British conquest of india is one reason why india wanted to be a united country of different states. It also is why india until 1991 was very isolationist and it remains a reason why India chooses neutrality over allies when it comes to geopolitics to the dismay of America and its allies.

Some corrections bro in akbar time policy were better as compared to other mughls but in his son jhangir time again huge discrimination again Hindus started to convert them

Actually India was rich before the Mughal Empire as well, the period of the Guptas Empire was literally called as the Golden Age, they contributed around 32 to 35 percent of total world GDP
And 400 years ago
India was not ruled by Mughals
It was ruled by Marathas

But I just wanted to clarify that it wan NOT the mughal empire when india was called the golden bird. When Bharat was under mughal rule (before btitish) its gdp had already declined to the worst and also there was so much social discrimination going on against the hindus. They already drained and looted our wealth and so much of our temples were destroyed and nalanda library (that contained books with precious knowledge) was burnt down.
Mughals were just invaders. Who themself contributed to the downfall of both- economy and social knowledge.
There is a reason why India has been the most invaded country since past.

They survived the change and resisted invasion against religion. This alone can prove the efficiency of Indians.
India was called golden bird under mauryan empire and gupta empire. India was rich before mughal
Yes but during mughal it was far more rich the subcontinent was always rich
@Terifixactually, no
@Chess_and_Universe_Astronomy actually yes
@Terifix Nice joke! BEFORE the Islamic Golden Age, there was a Dhaarmic Golden Age. People were building stuff (until the caliphate decided to bomb stuff). Everyone here was avoiding full fledged wars because the history of Kurukshetra was well known. This caused internal disturbances which Ghori and Ghaznavi took advantage of. They couldn't even keep up with Gurjar Pratiharas for centuries. Check the dates on first attack and then the first success.
Oh and BTW, even Alexander himself retreated from the banks of Indus.
@@Horopter Uhm yes Ghori and Ghaznavid werent good people I agree. But that dosent mean u blame muslims. The first Muslim attack in the subcontinent was from Muhammad Bin Qasim as the governer of Sindh at the time refused to return the kidnapped women that were on trading boats that were trading with India. So a 16 year old Muhammad bin Qasim fought with the governer of Sindh and annexed Sindh. Later other Muslim rulers came but after Ghori and Ghaznavid which were mainly in Afghanistan areas btw came other muslim rulers that prospered india.

India's GDP before Mughals era 32% you can confirm it by Google too and many people also had pointed out his mistakes check the newest comment my point is clear
@@sonisingh5296yes true. And before the Mughal era, India was scientifically developed too. And there was gender equality. Women used to learn everything along with men. Although there were casts, but not the extreme discrimination like now
@@sonisingh5296could you please share the source for this fact? If you check google, there is a WIDE amount of varying information on VARIOUS different websites, including many official government ones. The ai overview for google however, digs through these and says Mughals increased it. (When I asked google did the Mughals increase or decrease India’s GDP)
Also, the Mughals were a huge plus factor in boosting India’s trade. This would probably end up for india contributing a higher amount to world gdp.
1:15 Just to make it clear, Mughals had no control over Northeastern part of India.
Yes
N.E part of India is recognised as a part of India after some years of Indian Independence, so it's probably not included in Mughal Empire
@Maringa609 Well, in our old scriptures, we have the definition of Bharat (native name of India) as "all the land starting from the Himalayas upto the sea coasts". So the NE comes under that probably.
Anyways, the NE had people and rulers, who were culturally rooted to India, so that can be considered still under India before The Independence.

That's not all true in these video about the mughals and nothing about indian empire's so these is not the all correct history
@@raxu225 well this is a small part of the history showing when, how and why Britishers invaded India. So pretty much a good video explaning that.
There was peace for sometime but there were also persecution of hindus and Sikhs by alot of rulers.
Another thing to note is that even before mediaeval era, india held a super large portion of world's economy and it actually went down by 7-10% in medieval period, guess spices, fauna, agriculture,rare metals,textiles helped alot
FYI , BRITISH took India from MARATHAS , which heCOMPLETELY OVERLOOKED. what a selective freaking history is this.
The British gradually took control of India through a combination of military conquest and strategic alliances, ultimately displacing both the Mughal and Maratha powers.
By the early 18th century, the Mughal Empire, was weakening due to internal conflicts, succession struggles, and invasions. While the Mughal emperor remained a nominal figurehead, the empire's control was fragmenting, creating power vacuums.
During the Mughal decline, several regional powers, most notably the Marathas, rose to prominence. The Maratha Empire expanded rapidly across large parts of India, challenging Mughal remnants and other powers. At the same time, European colonial powers, including the British, the French, and the Dutch, were vying for control of trade and territories along the coast. The British East India Company began to expand its influence, initially in alliance with local rulers but later through direct military confrontation. The Anglo-Maratha Wars (1775-1818) were a crucial part of this. After defeating the Marathas in a series of wars, the British effectively dismantled the Maratha Empire by 1818, which had been one of the most powerful regional players in India. The British, after weakening the Mughals and defeating the Marathas, gained control over vast regions of India. While the Mughal emperor technically remained in Delhi until 1857, the British East India Company exercised real power. Following the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the British government took over direct control, marking the start of the British Raj.
Even before the Mughal period , India was in the Golden Era in the Mauryan and Gupta Empire
Oh i like this type of stuff a lot. If you do next can you do japan history?
mughals invaded an already rich india...their rule was cultural decline and economic and innovative stagnation...if not for the mughal colonisation...i doubt the british cud take over.
So you mean the Delhi Sultanate made India rich and then Mughals invaded it right?
@@pradnyasuryawanjare4819 you know what i mean...the things i said for the mughals apply to all 300 years of sultanates..afterall it was khilji who burnt nalanda..the wealth and skills that made wealth were all created by the natives..

In this very comment section they are yapping constantly about Hindu Rashtra this Hindu Rashtra that 💀 bruh I can't stand these folks, they really think that the Mughals didn't contribute anything. Also what is the point of comparing Mughals with Mauryan and Gupta when those two older empires perished
Yea so real that couldn't mention the BRITISH took India from Marathas, which you COMPLETELY OVERLOOKED
@Aman_Mondal ok fine then tell me what did the Mughals contribute for the common masses except for monuments which they made for themselves. You are probably just brainwashed bro.
Even the previous delhi sultanates were better than the good-for-nothing Mughals.
Muhammad bin Tughlaq did more and any of the "glorious" mughal dacoits could do in their lifetimes.
If mughal did anything for the masses like paving roads, building schools(for all communities), hospitals, introduce new and efficient farming techniques,
Feel free to mention
@Aman_Mondal at least Mauryan and Gupta empires did things for common indian people unlike the Mughals who used to send caravans full of wealth from your and my country to some village near Mecca
Mughal Empire wasn’t what’s around when British came
Its Hindavi Swarajya, which means "self-rule of Hindus" - Shivaji Maharaj defeated Muslim rulers and established Hindu Rashtra
India's GDP was estimated at 25.1% of the world economy in the 16th century, and 24.3% in 1600 AD. However, colonial rule transformed India into an exporter of raw materials and importer of finished goods, and the country's GDP declined to 3% by 1950
Our textbooks distorted all this so much that we are relearning everything.
Since you just started explaining things in simple terms, may be this will help.

@@Aman_Mondal so what according to you is the reality, whatever @ujwal ram said i agree with him/her.
@@Aman_Mondalisn't it just truth, British started gaining territories and their major play during Marathas
@@NoobGamer-ki9pz no it is not true British only started gaining control once the Marathas split and were weak.

Many more examples so am not the one who needs to be educated. The fact is the real history of India has been systematically erased by the British and everything they left behind is the reason why most of India is underdeveloped. But that's changing
@AlfiereRavelo I feel sorry for you, because you have been deliberately shown the bad side of India because it's considered cool. I live in Mumbai, city which has a GDP of around 200 billion dollars and never have I once seen a person shitting on streets. Am not saying it doesn't happen but it happens even in America's LA.

Famine due to over population 😂
@@rasithak.kk.k710india didn’t have a single famine after the end of british rule. in other words, overpopulation was never an issue
@V01DIORE those famines were not natural. They were created by the British. Especially the Bengal Famine. When asked to send food which was plentifully available, the British instead asked "Why isn't Gandhi dead"
An edit - our golden age Was in Gupta empire or you can even say mauryan times when india shared 33% of global GDP. With islamic invasion it declined but slowly by the time of mughals it was 25% of global gdp
Yes true. And also that time we were scientifically and socially more developed than Western countries. There was gender equality and women did not use to go out covering their face or entire body. That whole thing started at the sultan era and the Mughal era only

India was 30% of earth's GDP before Mughals and after the Mughals took over India fell to approximately 20-25% of earth's GDP and after British rule India was less than 2% of earth's GDP with a 0.01% growth from 1750 to 1947
Well, it have to do with other economies industrializing and more economic markers opening up. Actually Mughal India was richer than Mauryan India considering Mughal Taxed way more than Native rulers did. The wealth looted by the Mughals was kept in India whereas some other Muslim Afghan Conquers did only just loot.
So, yeah, you get the point.
@@sushilkumarlohani6709 Am not talking about the nominal GDP figures. Even modern India has a higher nominal GDP than Mauryan or Mughal period. What am talking about is the share of India's GDP in the world economy. That used to be 30% and is now around 3%

I want to correct this:
It was the Maratha Empire, under the rule of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj,his descendents and the Peshwe that finished the mughals in India and they made India united during 1700s, the British took India from the Marathas not Mughals. By the time the British declared reign the mughals were alrwady finished
Mughals did not make India rich, India was far richer before they invaded. All they did was mooch off of the land and decreased our wealth. Maurya and Gupta empire was our peak.

Hey Omar, I like the video but there is actually a lot more stuff that I believe should have been added as Battle of Plassey and Battle of Buxar only ensured control over northern and north eastern parts of India (though they were the richest ones). Events like the Anglo Maratha wars (another betrayal story) should be mentioned as the Maratha Empire controlled the majority of India in the 18th century. Anglo Mysore war gave South India to the British. Anglo Sikh wars gave north western parts to the British. And last but not the least, debt ridden Indian kings losing territories to the British. Well anyways keep up the good work!

It is proven that during the Mughal rule, our GDP decreased ALOT. It was due to many reasons, the one i can remember is that the emperors gifted the revenue collected in India to muslim countries in the middle east. Not only that they TORTURED Hindus. Destroying our temples and looting them, they killed many people too. They applied a tax named "Jaziya", which was basically a tax payed by Non-Muslims for pilgrimage.
The British conquest of india is one reason why india wanted to be a united country of different states. It also is why india until 1991 was very isolationist and it remains a reason why India chooses neutrality over allies when it comes to geopolitics to the dismay of America and its allies.

@@sonisingh5296 Historically kashmir was hindu land . Infact it's sacred land and lord shiva meditates on Himalayas . I don't think india should give away kashmir for islam majority. The kashmiri pandits follow shivaism. Kashmir was part of pre-partition punjab .
@@Theackermans121 my point was nehru had one job and he still f it
Some corrections bro in akbar time policy were better as compared to other mughls but in his son jhangir time again huge discrimination again Hindus started to convert them
Let's go!
Another long vid!
If we ignore the timeline of post-colonization, India was at its poorest phase during the Mughal era. Its wealth started to decline slowly since the start of this millennium, especially because of Islamic invaders. Then the Brits came and shot up India's decline.
How about speaking about the good things instead of the bad things??? Or are you too hateful towards Muslims.
@@Aman_MondalNah they are just hateful towards Muslims

The story of British invading India it’s a story that every Indian grows up with, and I am really sad because I’m an Indian but I am proud of India been able to be strong and fighting even if it’s no money
Omar specifically told the time period when the video started, so avoid unnecessary arguments.In a nutshell video was informative especially British side.And in a period of 25 mins he tried to picture it properly
