The Economic History of the Last 2,000 Years in 1 Little Graph

By 2050
China and India will have largest gdp in the world yet again
Natural order will be retained
Britain stole 45 trillion dollars from India .
In 100 years India will have gone from less than 1% of global gdp in 1948 to 10% by 2048

Not bad for a so called failed state me thinks

how do you see the post#4? the report of 'The Economists'.

its the same report we find in many credible references. here we find, the Labour cost of Western countries was 'cheaper' than South Asia till 1818, till the Fall of Maratha's, and the same Labour Cost Difference was somehow-someway maintained till late 1800s, and upto early 1900,......

10 Sept 2025 — The name India is derived from the Indus River. In ancient Sanskrit, it was called Sindhu. Persians pronounced it as Hindu, (y)

we now find population of Muslims of Undivided India, before 1946, at around 20%. while now Muslim population has exceeded the 20% at present in divided India?
and if this was the issue before Partition also, then we find ourselves on the same state even in today's India..........

the name Indus, after the river Indus is very political, while discussing the nation's name India. it was our land, the Hindustan, before 1946. this Hindi name, Indus, while having control on whole Indus River could help us see the whole "Akhand Bharat".
the name India is derived from "Indus River", Indus, the name taken from our old Hinduism Poems (y) .

as written by the first Indian PM, Mr Nehru, this certain river was our own land till 1946, the Hindustan, which was upto to the Pathans (Pashtuns) in the northwest. (y)

In The Discovery of India, and his related essays on "The Variety and Unity of India," Nehru emphasizes the vast differences and shared heritage among various Indian communities, from the Tamils in the south to the Pathans (Pashtuns) in the northwest.

.

Key aspects of his writings regarding this topic include:
  • Acknowledging Diversity: Nehru highlights the significant physical and cultural differences among India's people, using the "Pathan of the Northwest and the Tamil of the South" as primary examples of this wide variety.
  • Shared Identity: Despite these outward differences, such as variations in "racial stock, face, figure, food, clothing, and language," he argues that a "tremendous impress of oneness" and a common national heritage binds them all as distinctly Indian.
  • Cultural Influences: He notes that the Northwest Frontier Province (historical home of many Pashtuns) had Central Asian influences, even comparing some Patan dances to Russian Cossack dancing, while still maintaining an evident Indian spirit.
The phrase "Unity in Diversity," which perfectly describes the core theme of Nehru's observations, was coined by him in The Discovery of India to encapsulate how different cultures, races, and religions coexist with a strong sense of unity in the subcontinent.

It is widely documented that the Indian National Congress adamantly opposed the Partition of India until the widespread communal violence, particularly the Great Calcutta Killings of August 1946, demonstrated that a united India was likely unattainable without a full-scale civil war.

Congress's Position Before the Killings
  • Commitment to a United India: The Congress consistently viewed itself as the representative of all Indians of all faiths and its core ideology was a united, independent, and secular India.
  • Rejection of the Two-Nation Theory: Leaders like Mahatma Gandhi were firmly against the concept of partitioning the country based on religion (the two-nation theory) and held this stance until the very end.
  • Acceptance of the Cabinet Mission Plan: In mid-1946, the Congress initially accepted the British Cabinet Mission Plan, which proposed a loose federation and explicitly rejected the demand for a separate Pakistan, hoping for a constitutional solution that maintained a single union.
The Turning Point: Great Calcutta Killings
  • Direct Action Day: Frustrated with the political deadlock and the failure of negotiations over the Cabinet Mission Plan, the Muslim League leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah called for "Direct Action Day" on August 16, 1946, to demand the creation of Pakistan.
  • Eruption of Violence: The call led to massive, organized demonstrations in Calcutta that quickly descended into unprecedented, large-scale communal riots. Within 72 hours, an estimated 4,000 to 10,000 people were killed and 100,000 were left homeless.
  • Spread of Riots: The violence in Calcutta sparked a cycle of retaliatory massacres and ethnic cleansing across other regions, including Noakhali, Bihar, and Punjab, leading to a year of constant communal clashes.
Reluctant Acceptance of Partition
The horrific scale of violence and the subsequent realization that the two communities could not live together in peace without the imminent threat of full-scale civil war led most senior Congress leaders, such as Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Jawaharlal Nehru, to reluctantly accept Partition as a "bitter medicine". They concluded that accepting a truncated India was the only practical way to stop the escalating bloodshed and achieve independence quickly. Gandhi, while still personally opposed, eventually had to accept the decision made by the rest of the Congress Working Committee.

Indian-origin engineers have significantly reshaped the US technology sector 🇮🇳, transitioning from students to leaders in major companies like Microsoft, Google, and IBM. Their strong educational foundations in India, combined with opportunities in America, have fueled innovation and global impact. These leaders exemplify a successful migration story, blending their roots with American ingenuity to redefine technological possibilities.

Their success is more than personal triumph; it reflects a broader story of how migration, education, and ambition converge to drive the knowledge economy. :)
Engineers leading Microsoft, Google, IBM, and pioneering start-ups did not simply adapt to the competitive American landscape, they redefined it. 👍
Their journeys show how strong foundations in science and mathematics, combined with opportunities in the US, have produced leaders capable of transforming an era of rapid technological change.

The middle class is the fastest-growing major segment of the Indian population in both percentage and absolute terms, rising at 6.3 percent per year between 1995 and 2021. It now represents 31 percent of the population and is expected to be 38 percent by 2031 and 60 percent in 2047. More than one billion Indians will make up the middle-class when India will turn 100. These are the figures from PRICE ICE 3600 surveys based on primary data.

How the middle class will play the hero in India's rise as world power​

Imagine desi companies easily growing into global biggies supported by vast domestic scale. Growing disposable incomes, along with the rise of the middle class, will make India a consumption powerhouse.

As in above article, How we would rate Indian middle class with other Asian countries? 🕳️

We find Life Satisfaction rating of non-middle class people of India is a match to Least Developed Countries like Burma/Nepal.

Life satisfaction rating of lower middle income groups of Burma/Nepal/India is in fact a dream to people of OECD countries 👍

South Asia will NEVER be "united" again, and that is a good thing. Free Kashmir, free Khalistan, free Asssam, free Tami-EElam, etc. Oh, and free Indian-occupied Bangladesh (west Bengal) ;)

The Economic History of the Last 2,000 Years in 1 Little Graph​

That headline is a big promise. But here it is: The economic history of the world going back to Year 1 showing the major powers' share of world GDP, from a research letter written by Michael Cembalest, chairman of market and investment strategy at JP Morgan.

In Year 1, India and China were home to one-third and one-quarter of the world's population, respectively. It's hardly surprising, then, that they also commanded one-third and one-quarter of the world's economy, respectively.

Before the Industrial Revolution, there wasn't really any such thing as lasting income growth from productivity. In the thousands of years before the Industrial Revolution, civilization was stuck in the Malthusian Trap. If lots of people died, incomes tended to go up, as fewer workers benefited from a stable supply of crops. If lots of people were born, however, incomes would fall, which often led to more deaths. That explains the "trap," and it also explains why populations so closely approximated GDP around the world.

LMFAO, India will never reach that level of gdp growth. India isnt China. Not remotely close. China will reach douple or quadruple the gdp it had in year 1
