John Zubrzycki’s Jadoowallahs, Jugglers and Jinns is meticulously researched and crisply narrated, and will charm magic aficionados and lay readers alike.
Dice have been found dating to the Bronze Age in various Harappan sites in present-day northwest India and throughout Pakistan. And it’s very possible that some had female owners.
This world is being restructured and redrawn by one man, and what’s his power? It’s not his formidable military. It’s trade. With China, it turned on him.
To what depth of despair has my country fallen, Oh!, Lord for none of the commentators seem to have read the post but continue to engage through their pre conceived notions and biases. Some keep ranting hate with disconnected facts, while others are still disillusioned about the Moron Mughal’s greatness.

The Mughals themselves we’re Invaders, thus were no different from the British, Actual Indians were of only Aryan and Dravidian descent, Hence, all their splendour, riches and glory was plundered wealth and spoils of War,
To answer the question how Mughal glory faded and subcontinent became British Raj one needs to go a long way of our Medieval history behind. Actually four European Powers were attempting to establish empire in the subcontinent. English, French, Portuguese and Dutch. However it was English and French who emerged strong contenders post demise of Emperor Aurangazeb Alamgir. English was quick to out manouevre French in the Carnatic while successfully asserting their Sovereignty in present day Bihar, Bengal and Orissa. By 1760 English East India Company had vast square miles of territory in the sub continent under their Sovereignty. It was by brilliant mix of military and Diplomacy company achieved this. Major reason for weakening of Moguls was the defeat in back to back invasions of Persian Nadir Shah in 1740 and Safavid Ahamed Shah Abdali in early 1750s. Thenafter only two powers rose to prominence, one foreign East India Company and another Native Maratha Empire. Mugals were by this time restricted only to vicinities of Delhi. Many of their feudatories declared Sovereignty. English in the 19th century defeated Maratha too by 1830s. Punjab and Sind fell by 1850s and thus whole of subcontinent fell into foreign power that is British Raj.
Then how come India come under British Raj. Was it all dream? If mughals were so great then how come their last ruler had to die in exile in present day Rangoon?
Well that happened when mughals lost their power. The biggest reason for that was extremist and stupid policies by the moron emperor called aurangzeb. Be literally destroyed the empire.
Mughals were brave n like mountains.they never paid much attention to Britishers.
Atleast half of the Europe came here with the motive of looting India but no one can do any harm to India till mughals were in power.
But Kababwala, the English marrowed your back in sleep & oneday in a fine morning you bloody Javans found yourself a stretcherous class before the Britishers. Thus there is nothing to boast of.
Atlast, Mughals are Mughals. No matter what today’s Sanghi media says. It should be a proud moment that the English man had to bow hundreds of time in a day to get a permission and license to work.
And same English men, too Bahadur Shah Zafar to some alien land and made him suffer. No one knew his grave for long time. Right from Princely states around year 1000 to Mughals of 1500 unto 1700s and British, history is clear that they dig their own grave. Nothing to be proud of. People say Gandhi got freedom from British with non-violence method. But people don’t realize that many lives were lost due to tyranny of British Raj. British were pauper post world war II and literally have to leave many of their colonies, not just India. History can be distorted by few historians. But reality remains.

Actually whole subcontinent never fell into british hands but only half of the subcontinent.
We all would have been a descendants of mangoles, if mughals wouldn’t have stopped them in war….
Every ruler had a wickness and the Britishers could not have done with mughals without playing dirty politics….
It is the Congress and opposition parties who kneel before the descendants of Moghuls inside and outside the Country with their dirty politics.
