 true history of India

True History Of India
History of India:

Well I studied history as everyone else in school. Those were post british days and curriculum was not as sensored as today. So I got fare bit of true picture.

Now I am coming back to history of India to have a few analytical observations on it. Of course people are free to discuss from their point of view.
First point is I tried to take stock of biggish powerfull hindu rulers of India. Well in 1000 b c to nearly 1 a d any Indian kings who were powerful militarily, never defeated in their lifetime, could fight strongly foreign invaders were very very few. In fact when I took stock the names of Chandragupta Mourya only comes fore. In post a d era for upto 800 years only other name that stands out was Harshwardhan.
This gave answer to one question that came to my mind often that why parts of India were always under some or other foreign invader after 800 a d.
it was only after valiant fights of matathas based in Pune that hindu rule came to most of India after 1700 a d . In between 900 years or so were pure hell for India.
Now after 1950 whether India is under heaven or hell is not clear, mostly under british influenced Congressman ( Gandhi brigade I call them).
Well India is such a big country but had so few powerfull world beating hindu rulers is
shows the reason for current fate or state of India.

Then I don't know how you can call the present Congress influenced by the British. Its US that rules the world now, everyone else are their followers. We live in the age of globablisation. The present Congress is pro globalization and pro US which is fine with me because that's the only way we can become a developed nation. UK is no longer a monarchy.

It's better to talk in terms of economy than religion when we are talking about development. As they say it happens only in India. The main reason for us being backward is sticking to the age old garbage. Humanity has advanced, and its high time we started thinking globally instead of some form of "hindu" administration.

Well, its a waste of time trying to think what could have been done.

The main reason for the fall of Hindu empire was spread of Jainism and Buddhism that spread in the era of Ashoka which weakened the army, and let the muslim invaders invade India. There was no resistance.

After that there was serious misinterpretation in Anthropolgy which gave rise to a rasict theory.(google Aryan Race and read it in Wikipedia) This gave the British colonialists a great opportunity to divide India. They fuelled unrest between north and south indians based on Aryan and Dravidian race. Further they took advantage of Hindu-Muslim divide. We weren't in a postion to fight them, but more importantly they didn't help India develop, but plundered our country and left us in a quandary.

Good analysis doc.
You really think hindu rulers would have given better governance.

The governance in post independence era does not bear it out.
