You can't be racist towards postmen either, since they're not a race.

it means the colonizer (in this case british) thinks the colonized are there for the welfare of mother country and therefore inferior human beings

I don't know why I bother. *leaves*

Source. Growth rates in First World countries are slowing, the planet is stabilizing.

the rate of increase is becoming less exponential. sorry i've never been worth a dam at keeping track of sources, but they do come mostly from jurried scientific literature.

"source" for slowing of loss of species diversity, among other key factors in the stability of the web of life upon which the very atmosphere we breathe is utterly dependent.

Unrestricted trade between Britain and India, I meant. Having a thousand warring little states isn't good for getting material back to England.

I'm not trolling. I'm pointing out that your supposed principles aren't even so important as to allow you to forgo a bit of ease of communication for them.

you wanna speak in hindi i am ready but i bet you dont even know know hindi


No, but google does. In fact, in some places, the gigantic entity can translate it surprisingly fluently.

How so? According to Wikipedia;

Wikipedia wrote:A tribe, viewed historically or developmentally, consists of a social group existing before the development of, or outside of, states.


The Indian government, if my memory serves, has recognized tribes within India as seperate political bodies, such as the Sikhs. Many inhabitants of India and Pakistan identify much more strongly with these 'tribes' than with the states they inhabit or even the greater nation.

"I can't give you a source, but I have a really good memory! So trust me! It's not like I spend most of my day talking about absolute bullshit on discussion forum and regularly misspell even the most simple of words!"

Rather, it is because you're so obtuse and hate-filled that you can't get over yourself.

Cheap, but still resulting from trade. No sense in having tariffs through those little states if it's all going back to England, see?

They were largely based upon tribal groupings. The Sikhs had an Empire, so did the Mughals and many other nations, but they were all founded upon tribal groupings. The Sikhs, for example, banded together as a religious/ethnic group to carve out a state for themselves as the Mughals declined.

But, even being a God, to keep that power you'll have to pay your troops more than the rest of the generals pay theirs, unless you're willing to contract barbarians. Might have to add some more bronze to that gold at the mint. . . .

You know, the East has always been a bit touchy about barbarians, a bit less worried about internal politics, I could probably palm off the West on some unsuspecting sucker and live out my life in luxury in Byzantium...
