Colonial India After the British 

French didn't failed to control India they traded it with the british for some sugar cane island in the Caribbean's, what a great deal...

This is one of the questions you would actually not be able to trip me up on, at least with Goa, as for the end of Colonial India. I guessed at first that Oman had the Maldives for some amount of time when you brought a Middle Eastern country. Same with asking me when the Portuguese Empire ended, which would be 1999 with Macau, although that one is more well known I think.

Made vedio on chola chalukya wars

The Portuguese had been in control of Goa for about a century before the English had a permanent settlement in what's now the United States, and the Portuguese left 450 years after arriving, so you can see why they were reluctant to let go. That said, Goa was at least 90% Indian by ethnicity, and wasn't governed democratically.

I heard that some people still speak Portugese in Goa, haven't got any sources on that though...

@@abzalf7946 Only few thousand people speak Portuguese in Goa (~1-2% of the population). Most of the Goans speak Konkani.

@@manofculture4249 interesting, thank you for sharing!

@@abzalf7946 up

Assuming you meant the British, French, Spanish, Portuguese and German empires, there are also many videos focusing on the Dutch and Italian empires, but I agree in that the rest are also interesting and should be talked about more, even those two I mentioned deserve more attention

Didn’t the Swedish have colonies too? I would like to see that

@@drkclshr yea they did have some like a small part north from deleware and the gold coast (actually the swedish gold coast is what would later become the danish gold coast)

@@drkclshr Also in Pomerania, Niedersachsen, and Estonia.

One of the most unexpected european colonisations was the colony of Tobago, which was colonized by the Duchy of Courland 😅

Yeah 5 billion dollars Is a lot of money!

Oh man, Oman got a good deal!

Well, Gwadar has the potential to be developed into a major port if you're a country that also controls Karachi but is worried about India blockading it. The Chinese have been pouring in a lot of money into Gwadar for just that reason. The Pakistanis could have just seized it like the Indians did with the Portuguese colonies, but they value their relations with the Arab world.

Yup. Nehru was still hoping for "diplomatic solution". So as a goodwill gesture he didn't officially incorporate it into India, much to the anger of RSS activists who had captured Dadra

wow

The prime minister of Portugal was born in Goa. just for the curiosity

@@Comrade_Zaz Bas Kuch bhi bolo. Jo Mann kare, kahin bhi

@@ishanbajpai6940 He a Nazi flag as his profile photo... Bas ahmi nahi bol raha.

@@Comrade_Zaz Bruh, atleast look at his profile closely, that's a countryball of German Empire before WW2, that's not a Swastika. Please check your preconceived notions, his profile pick is not a Nazi one.

@@ishanbajpai6940 no, that is the nazi reichskriegesflagge, the nazi naval flag, but edited to have an iron cross instead of a swastika. Depictions of the nazi flag for media like Hearts of Iron often substitute iron crosses for swastikas; both symbols were used extensively by the nazis, but since the iron cross is also a more general german military symbol, it is seen as less offensive than the rotated nazi swastika. The German Empire flag was a simple horizontal tricolor with black on top, white in the middle, and red at the bottom. The most similar Imperial German flag to the one on that countryball is the Imperial naval flag, which was mostly white and had the Prussian eagle rather than an iron cross. This is definitely a nazi countryball.

Nobody wants to die for Danzig? Pfft of course we'll die for Danzig. Goa though? Whoa there don't be crazy!

@@deiansalazar140 NATO's mutual defense clause only covers North America, Europe and the Atlantic north of the Tropic of Cancer (and also covered the Algerian departments of France prior to Algerian independence). This was stated plainly and purposefully in Articles 5 and 6 of the North Atlantic Treaty and was not a secret to anyone. Portugal's NATO allies weren't obligated to help it in Goa any more than Britain's NATO allies were obligated to help in in the Falklands. And Danzig is irrelevant here, unless you're trying to look like a Nazi sympathizer.

Portugal is the UK's oldest ally- English knights helped _create_ Portugal- so they were all clear to stay.

Oman possession now part of Pakistan 🇵🇰

Yea, they laid Goa off in 1962 and the French territories during the 1955s...

@@SamAronow I'm a portuguese history major, and yes they still maintain the oldest alliance, but it's very exaggerate to say they helped "create", they barely send men to fight, and decades after the actual fondation of the kingdom.

@@SamAronow Bahaha, the Anglo-Portuguese alliance was an abusive marriage. The British literally THREATENED WAR on Portugal over some Portuguese lands in Africa in the late 19th century. Check the British Ultimatum/pink map. The Crusaders from the north Atlantic were indeed crucial in capturing Lisbon, but the later British empire proved to see Portugal as a de facto puppet. When Napoleon invaded, they were happy to help retake Portugal from the French (Portugal was the only nation to refuse the embargo on the British), but then they were also happy to seize the gold from our churches and rule Portugal as a de facto protectorate until the war ended As I said, abusive marriage

Even Austria-Hungary had a colony in India at one point. Though it lasted for a brief period

Some cursed EU4 mod

In short there is a village that was a spice trading outpost for the Ragusans, but today's residents of Dubrovnik and the Indian village claim that it was a colony of the Republic of Ragusa, pretty interesting

@@pranavjoshi1471 they also had a legation in Beining. France had a colony near Hong Kong too called Guangzhauwen.

That actually helped me understand the size of Goa because of am one of those strange people with a fascination for cold, remote islands.

Not annexation but revolution in sikkim. Sikkim king was Tibetan culture Buddhist. Population was nepali hindus. Many nepali hindus in sikkim asked help of RSS the pro India force in video. RSS forced government to take action as the king married an American women which was Said to be influencing king against India. After that many RSS paramilitary and indian soldiers marched in king's palace Killing guards and signing a treaty.

Sikkim wasn't Annexed it's Ceded

@@LeValdrian And they still think we are sorry for the Hundred years war ? These sons of hamster will learn the hard way how to make proper cuisine hurr durr

True

The Spanish speaking communist Cubans fought the (basically) Dutch speaking South Africans declaring independence from the British, in former fascist Portuguese Angola with the racist South Africans invading through the formerly imperialist German colony of Namibia.

The Colonial war was a result of the invasion on Portuguese India in 1961. Macao lasted as a Portuguese colony until 1999.

I've heard about this. Essentially some Ragusan traders set up a trade outpost in Goa and also built a Catholic Church. It's probably the most liberal application of the term "colonize" I've ever seen but it happened.

Very Loose, yes, but pretty typical of colonization efforts at the time. Still, I know nothing about Ragusa. Very interesting stuff

They had a colonial possession in Goa as well

I thought the same too for a second lol

Not actually irrelevant. It´s the same war being referenced.

I hate it when people call native Americans Indians

@@OatmealGrillBlazer A lot of them in the US actually prefer it. It was declared to be their name before English even was a language spoken in the US, many of their associations title themselves as Indians, and to remove the name from them is in many ways a process initiated by those who are outsiders to their tribe when they have already had so much taken from them. CGPGrey actually went and interviewed American Indian leaders to see what their people tend to use. It varies of course but Indian is still common. Hilariously, the Republic of India doesn't call itself India in most of the languages spoken there. Most call it Bharat. Calling India Indian is somewhat of a misnomer too. At least Indonesia is more right in this regard.

It was in the village of Gandaulim, Goa. The only remnant of the Croatians, is its St. Braz church.

Yikes buddy. Get your neo Nazi fanfic outta here.

"Neo-Nazi fanfic", or as anyone with a brain living in the west today calls it, "reality".

@@sdhappyprince I think they were asking more about who the people of Goa tend to vote for and if their voting patterns differ from otherwise similar parts of India that were under British rule.

Yeah, I meant the culture of who people vote for, rather than the voting system, sorry that wasn't clear. I was just thinking of how you sometimes see maps of elections in somewhere like Poland and they line up with past empires etc.

Considering the results of the recent Goa legislative election, I'd say Goa votes pretty proportionately with the rest of India right now, with the BJP in majority

@@sirlj4328 Thanks, does that also extend to the other places mentioned in the video too?

@@Alex_Deam Daman and Diu has voted BJP as well, and I'm pretty sure Dadra and Nagar Haveli have voted INC (the two mainstream Indian parties). Puducherry Union Territory is currently under the AINRC (a breakaway party from the INC in a coalition with the BJP), so there really isn't much electoral differences between these regions and the rest of India. Goa however, has one of the highest GDP per capitas in India (higher than both Delhi and Mumbai's), on par with Brazil's. This is most likely due to the massive tourism industry in the state, alongside recent infrastructural development, alongside its small size and population.

It's in the village Gandaulim, Goa

Argentina has as well

No. It only includes territory in Europe.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the actual reason for this is because the NORTH ATLANTIC treaty organizaiton alliance actually only works as a defense for the member state's MAINLAND, not colonies in the Indian ocean, as in NOT in the NORTH ATLANTIC.

Discrimination wasn’t the rule in Goa since by then most people were of mixed blood

nope technically not

Not really, it just that the later Pakistani dictators were racist morons which led to Bangladesh

Indian subcontinent refers to ex-British colonies of India (Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka) Historical Indian subcontinent referred to Areas from Kabul to Assam underneath the himalayas Geographical only a small portion of Pakistan can be consider a part of Persia called Taftan (the pointy northern part).

@@Comrade_Zaz The Indian subcontinent refers to the land mass pushing against the rest of Asia, resulting in the surrounding mountains. Subcontinents are geographical, not political.

@@manicmaniac4060 Continents are literally defined by Historical and Cultural Reasons. If according to you they were defined by "lands masses pushing" then the random Islands near South America would be called subcontinents Continents were invented by the Romans to divide the land, A political reason, East being Asia, South being Africa West being Altantis, and North being Europe

@@Comrade_Zaz I didn't say that was the definition of a subcontinent. A continent is a large land are higher than the rest of the surface. Culture does not matter. You do realize other celestial bodies have continents, right? They don't have cultures. They don't even have life.

So true...
