Do NowWhat choice do nations have when

confronted by “developed” imperialist countries?

Europeans have influenced life in India for many years. The first Dutch explorers established trading centers on the coastline and, as the power of the ruling Mughal Empire faded, began to exert more influence on Indian life. Soon, though, the Dutch were replaced by a new colonial power – the British East India Company. This company took a greater role in Indian life, even establishing its own army called the Sepoys. Comprised of Indians, this security force protected the interests of the company as it became more and more involved in controlling the country’s political and military affairs. There was even rumors the British government themselves would get involved.

What should India do?

India “Rolls with It” -at first

• British East India Company– Founded in 1600– Monopoly on trade w India

• Sepoy Mutiny– 1857 rebellion– British put it down

• British Colonial Rule– 1858 Queen takes control– British officials rule over

India• Indian Nationalist

Movement: Mohandas Gandhi - 1915 begins to grow - 1947 Gain independence

British East India Company• December 31, 1600, Queen Elizabeth I

granted a charter to a group of 25 adventurers, giving them a monopoly on trade between England and the countries in the East Indies.

• Indian textiles were in high demand in Europe, including cotton cloth, chintz, and calico.

• By 1765, the Company had acquired control of the revenue systems of Bengal, Orissa, and Bihar, on India's east coast, and became the largest territorial power in India.

Sepoy Mutiny - 1857• mutiny by Bengal (Indian) army soldiers, or

Sepoys, against their commanders in the army of the British East India Company.

• Rifle cartridges greased with pig and cow fat, substances offensive to both Muslim and Hindu religions.

• British regained military control, and those Sepoys who had revolted were severely punished—a number of captured Sepoys were fired from cannons.

An Englishman Born in India • Rudyard Kipling

1865-1936• Kipling was an English writer and

winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. He is best known for his poems and stories set in India during the period of British imperial rule.

• Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay, India, on 30 December 1865. His father was an artist and teacher. In 1870, Kipling was taken back to England to stay with a foster family in Southsea and then to go to boarding school in Devon. In 1882, he returned to India and worked as a journalist, writing poetry and fiction in his spare time. Books such as 'Plain Tales from the Hills' (1888) gained success in England, and in 1889 Kipling went to live in London.

Rudyard Kipling, The White Man's Burden, 1899

• Take up the White Man's burden--Send forth the best ye breed--Go bind your sons to exileTo serve your captives' need;To wait in heavy harness,On fluttered folk and wild--Your new-caught, sullen peoples,Half-devil and half-child.

• Take up the White Man's burden--And reap his old reward:The blame of those ye better,The hate of those ye guard--The cry of hosts ye humour(Ah, slowly!) toward the light:--"Why brought he us from bondage,Our loved Egyptian night?"
