@MBEverette hi, my reading lists usually comprise of Chinese novels/cnovels  ^_^;  and I never actually took submissions, I just read cnovels, and if I find them good enough for fellow readers to read, I just add them to my suggestions book

but there were good things too as you said, stuff like dowry was abolished, widow remarriages were encouraged, child marriages were abolished to some extent, and convents and institutes like that provided education irrespective of people's caste, lots of women were educated because of this, and they brought the idea of globalsiation too, so yeahh these were the positive things that histroy textbooks taught us, I scared you fof with my maniacal rant didn't I?

But India wasn't(still isn't)without flaws, cause if it really was that case, it wouldn't take people 3 centuries for gaining independence, there were kings and rulers who eyed other kingdoms which meant internal strife and lack of unity, there were caste and social class issues, and there were regions which saw fraternity and brotherhood irrespective of religions, while there were regions where the blood was shed for the same reasons.
            This was enough for the Brits to use their infamous 'Divide and Rule Policy'
            This is kinda similar to how they gained a strong political foothold through 'Act of Union' in 1707 and 1801, affecting Ireland and Scotland.
            One of the most brutal massacres in history were carried out by the GB folks was the 'Jallianwallah Bagh massacre' on April 13th 1919, it was carried out by a dude called General Dyer
            So, basically there was this rule then that gathering or grouping of people is not allowed(to prevent revolts againast the Brit govt), and many people gathered on that day in Jalianwallah Bagh to celebrate the Sikh's(a religion) new year where lots of women, kids and people in general gathered, these people were largely the common people who ahd nothing to do with revolting or freedom struggle, but what was supposed to be a joyous occasion turned into one of the darkest moments in Indian History, the routes to leave this place was blocked and a mass shooting was carried out, apparently even today  in Jallianwallah Bagh,the walls have the marks of red

@mg_007_pete_stark continuation abt me ranting abt the colonialism in India, so pls ignore it if you aren't interested in this-
            And when steam engine came into existence, the British needed lots of coal, tracks for the railway, the forests in India were reduced exponentially if we comapre wt we had before and after colonisation
            During WWI and WWII, the GB folks took Indian sepahi(in hindi, GB dudes called soldiers as Sepoy, at least get the pronunciation right guys) to fight their wars
            Racism was hugely seen everywhere
            And what's less known and discussed by the world economies is how Indian Math and Science were way ahead of their time, I think my ancestors from five centuries ago knew Math and Science better than I did.
            If you read chinese novels, you'd come across the term 'traditional chinese medicine' right, India too has its own traditional medicine called Ayurveda, which is equally powerful, but today, many prefer alopathy aka the English Medicine, Homeopathy etc, cause they're less bitter, and are the Western-approved. And we've had our fair share of Ancient Mathematicians and the quite recent ones like Aryabhatta and Srinivasa Ramanujan
            We had schools called Gurukuls where the students were taught for a specific amount of time, they didn't have things like fees and all that, they had to give their Guru aka the teacher a guru dakshina(something to convey their gratitude for all the knowledge they received). Learnign was more practical than theoretical. And quite a millenium ago, there existed civilisations like the Harrapan Civilisation, and Mohenjo Daro, these civilisations were so dman advanced that they had draiange systems, public bath houses, currency(instead of the barter system) back then, no one knows how those civilisations collapsed and why, but archaeologists have uncovered a lot abt them.

@EmmineGranger well honestly I'd prefer to be hidden from the world too I totally get y u told me to do this and I'm totally ok ;⁠)

@EmmineGranger  ohkay, I'm gonna suggest a completely insane and roundabout way for sharing my insta id, so first, if you go to my profile and in the end of About section, there's a link to my writeoutloud profile, as soon as you navigate to that website, the first thing you'll see abt my account is name, followed by my mail id, can u pls mail me to that mail id, say something that'll make me realise that it's you, I'm sure even James Bond and his colleagues do not show this level of complexity in exchanging messages or info 

@mg_007_pete_stark  oh I'd have insta too 

@EmmineGranger  oh that's really cool!

@mg_007_pete_stark that's all right bruh  it happens 

@mg_007_pete_stark oh yeah one of my elder sister is a MCA fy so ik about all this computer language like she tells me bout it which is easy hard etc etc. But I'm thinking of pursuing a diff Carrier actually. I want to do something related to space researching so yeah that and idk if I'll have it in future but I'll try to get it for sure.

:) I'm hooked to your books, I finished both of them in a go (Ties and Fate and Battery my heart, Mr.Xi )

@mg_007_pete_stark You'll love them! They are all connected too. 

@MarvelDc_EU  Sure! Wanda is one of my most favorite characters in Marvel, I'll surely read you books
