    The problem of India is international, not national - Allama Mohammad Iqbal

    Nobody claimed that India was a nation in the past as the concept of modern nation state was only established in the 18th century anyways. But the fact remains that the people of India considered themselves as part of one civilization in the past which is proven by historical records. For...

    Saka and Jauhar, the sole reason for the repeated defeats and downfall of Rajputs?

    The main flaw of the Rajputs was the fact that they were not able to establish a stable Empire or Dynasty or more precisely they did not master the art of statecraft unlike the Hindu counterpart from the south the Vijayanagar Empire. While the Vijayanagar Empire established a stable rule for...

    The problem of India is international, not national - Allama Mohammad Iqbal

    :D A very funny post. Raja Dahir was a ruler in what is modern Pakistan and was defeated by the Arabs which led to the Arab oppression in Pakistan. The greedy Arabs tried to push into India as they thought that Indians would be also an easy prey like the ancestors of Pakistanis. But the Arabs...

    Port City Colombo - Sri Lanka. Thank you China.

    But Sri Lanka was doing quite well unlike the African nations. So it was unnecessary to get under the Chinese influence. Unfortunately Mahinda and his goons have sold the land to the Chinese to pour money into their own pockets. Sri Lanka has been so far the most developed region in South Asia...

    Oh boy Sri Lanka is slowly selling its land to the Chinese. Mahinda is truly the most stupid president Sri Lanka ever had. During the regime of his family Sri Lanka got a huge amount of debt towards the Chinese. Hopefully it wont end like some African countries who can not free themselves from...

    Why is South India paying for North India

    Dont get me wrongly. I do not question the concept of helping the less developed states but the question to which extent should be asked. Particularly even the more developed states have issues and would need the money for their own programs. What kind of sacrifice are you talking about? The...

    Saka and Jauhar, the sole reason for the repeated defeats and downfall of Rajputs?

    Interesting input. Yes you could argue weather it would not have been better to appoint these women as soldiers. But I highly doubt that this would have made a difference in this particular battle between Sangha and Babur. At the end Babur won because of his matchlocks and superior artillery...

One against North India and the other against South India but both were repelled. In the south the Arabs were...

    1000 years old mandir - Manora , Karachi

    Actually the Angkor Wat temples were heavily influenced by south Indian Chola, Pallava and Chalukya architecture, which is not surprising as some of the medieval Khmer kings were related to the south Indian royal families.

    Currently Southern Indian states are more developed and doing much better economically than the Northern states which leads to the strange situation that Southern states pay for the development of the Northern states without any gain. What are the reasons for the huge difference between South...
