15.000 english soldiers enough to conquer India.

[renaissance12]

How did the English with 15,000 soldiers (or less ) manage to conquer the entire Indian subcontinent with 300 millions people ?

In the 19th century, rifles were also known in India.

Why was Indian subcontinent so incredible passive and helpless as to be unable to resist against so few soldiers ?

2000 years ago to conquer England with 4 million inhabitants, the ancient Romans sent 3 legions, that is, approximately 18,000 soldiers and knights... with thousands more people in the logistics sector.

So a Briton from 2000 years ago was worth as much as 100 Indians from the 19th century.

I'm tired of idiots.

Long story short:

The British used Indians to conquer Indians. They wouldn't have been able to do it on their own. It's the same situation with the French in Algeria and the Spanish in Latin America.

Why do people make these threads? The answer is within your own reach (pick up a book).

We had lots of problems with Chechens until in late 90s - early 2000s Putin's crew finally used the situation that Chechen society is clanish and supported Kadyrov's clan which made all the dirty job for Russians without Russian military persence.
