East India Company (Part 5)

 Now we will consider from another aspect.  The East India Company started its work only by trying to establish factories for its agents and places to store its goods.  To protect them, the company built many forts.  The idea of ​​establishing a kingdom in India and making land ownership a source of income was conceived by the people of the East India Company, albeit long ago, in 1689;  But by 1744, only a few insignificant districts around Bombay, Madras and Calcutta were able to achieve them.  After this, the war that broke out in Karnataka, as a result, after various battles, he had become almost unbroken masters of that part of India as well.  He benefited even more from the Bengal war and Clive's victories.  They had actual occupation of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa.  At the end of the 18th century and in the early years of the present century, there were wars with Tipu Sultan.  As a result of this, there was a very wide expansion of the system of power and navy.  In the second decade of the 19th century, the first frontier region of the frontier, India's frontier within the desert was finally conquered.  Earlier, the British Empire had not reached those parts of Asia in the East, which had been the capital of every great central power of India in all the times.  But the site of the most vulnerable of the empire, the site from which it was attacked as many times as the old conquerors were driven out by the new conquerors, that is, were not in the hands of the angels of the western border of the country.  In the period from 1838 to 1849, the British rule also subjugated the ethnic, political, and military frontiers of the continent of eastern India, by forcefully occupying Punjab and Sindh, through Sikh and Afghan wars.  These rights were absolutely necessary to drive away any forces coming from Central Asia and to prevent Russia from moving towards the borders of Persia (Iran).  During this last decade, the Indian territory of Britain has an area of ​​1, 67,000 square miles, in which 85,72,630 people live, and have been added.  As far as the country is concerned, all the princely states are now surrounded by the British system;  In one way or the other, they have been subject to the power of Britain;  And, except in Gujarat and Sindh, they are cut off from the coast.  As far as outside is concerned, India is over.  Since 1849, only a great Anglo-Indian empire has existed there.  Thus, under the name of the company, the British government has been fighting for two centuries until finally the natural frontiers of India are over.  Now we can understand why all the parties of England have been sitting silently in this entire period, who had also resolved that after the completion of the establishment of the Indian Empire, they will make a lot of fuss by making artificial sayings of insidious peace.  .  In order to show his benevolent benevolence, it was necessary that he first seize it in some way!  From this perspective, we can understand why the situation in the Indian question has changed in this year, 1853, compared to the old days of re-issue of Sanad.
