how do you figure?
seems like historical determinism
which is dumb and wrong
Literacy rates were only at 16% at the end of British rule
correlation does not = causation
It ways it started around the early 2000 (90's if you want to be generous), and the Raj was out by the 50's
<:scared:591188576859979778>
do you have any causal evidence for what you are claiming? @Asdrubal
About the literacy rate being 16%?
So to say that the Raj would have stopped that, would be ridiculously speculative
Bro these rates you're using were improved globally Chief
Global literacy rates improved
about basically every stat you posted
Global income improved
So did global life expectancy
And infant mortality declined
Anyways, I'm gonna pop back out because dog-pile style of debate is shitty
@Asdrubal post hoc ergo propter hoc
That's what you're doing
No

Again that can be shown by mass communication technology developed during that time
Yup
why do people want to hate the empire so much?
is it just racism?
anti anglo sentiment is damaging
Because the empire was horrible
It was bad bro
Mercantilism
Trash
bad for us
The empire is why Israel exists
but it benefitted the world
