When you suddenly wonder why one country is rich, and the second is not very, always turn to history.
England today is a very rich country. And we can say without any exaggeration that capital was erected on bones and blood. The number one industrial power, as if on a nutrient solution, grew with tens of millions (exactly like that!) Of the corpses of Indians.
But she could remain a third -rate European power with a different circulation of the case if she had not risen to the looted billions of gold and millions of corpses.
"Plains of India whitened the bones of the weavers", ”said the British governor general, Lord William Bentink in London, in 1834.
From a big story, not to delete these words, as if diligently, many on the island of nightmares did not try to forget them
