    Hey y'all! Just letting you know that I created another almost 20 minute long video explaining how the complex borders/geography between Armenia and Azerbaijan led to war between them last year, but that video could never, ever be monetized on CZcams and because of that, CZcams would never even send most of you any notifications or alerts if I uploaded it. So instead, I uploaded it to Nebula and the link is here: nebula.app/videos/real-life-lore-modern-conflicts-the-2020-armeniaazerbaijan-war
    The best way to get access to Nebula is through the CuriosityStream bundle deal linked above, and it's less than $15 a year. I'll be posting new videos in this Modern Warfare series every month on Nebula, so if that sounds like something you'd be interested in go ahead and check it out!! Thanks :)

    Imagine you're playing cricket or football with your friends in Bangladesh and your ball ends up in India
    Edit: People don't get the joke. You are in one of of those exclaves. To get the ball you need to go to india,to go to india you need visa, to get a visa you need to go the the embassy and to get to the embassy you need to drive through india.

    So my grandmother was born in British India 1935, grew up in East Pakistan (1947 to 1971) and now lives in Bangladesh (1971 to present day)..... To make it clear. She never actually left her village. She was always in the same place, just the country changed hands so much.
    So hearing about that crazy border situation does'nt surprise me at all.

    As a Bengalee person living pretty close to the border in the Indian state of West Bengal, I can certify this mess is real. There are rivers or canals (sometimes even ponds) with two nations on two sides, villages halved, and previously there were some households with the border going literally through them. Thousands of people cross the border daily both legally and illegally to go to school, hospital, place of work, or to visit their relatives. Thanks to British, it makes no damn sense. People on either side of the border, living close to it, look nearly the same, speak nearly the same language (or atleast understand each other's dialects), have similar cultures, and of course, shared history.

      Correction: thanks to India being too proud to swap enclaves if it meant giving up any territory overall, it makes no sense. If Britain had drawn a simpler border and told people to move if they wanted to stay part of "their people's" territory, today they'd be blamed for how they'd done that.

    This border was designed by a British named Cyril Radcliffe. (Everyone hates him) He took only three days to make it and he had never been to India before. So he did not know this part of the world. After making the map the British hurriedly left the country and civil war properly broke out. Lots of people had to leave their homeland and a lot more died in the war. In 1947.

      "Bengal sultanate" or modern day Bangladesh produced 52% of Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of Worlds GDP. Bengal or modern day Bangladesh was first to fall to The East India Company at the Battle of Palashy/Plassey. .. that's why British East India Company HQ was located in Calcutta in undivided Bengal. ..Narayanganj Distric just 10km south to Dhaka in present day Bangladesh was the hub for the British trade & used to call "Dundee of the East". .. Since Bangladesh has the most fertile soil in the World British East India company cultivated opium in a district call "Nilphaamari" in present day Bangladesh 200+km north to Dhaka & delivered to China which was the sole reason for Opium wars.
      The Bengal Presidency or modern day Bangladesh at the height of its territorial jurisdiction, it covered large parts of what is now South Asia and Southeast Asia ( From Afghanistan to the west to Singapore to the East). Bengal was the economic, cultural and educational hub of the British Raj .. Historically, Bengal or Bangladesh has been the industrial leader of the subcontinent & produced 52% of the Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of the world GDP during British Raj & & fueled the First Industrial Revolution in Europe & America in the period from about 1760 to sometime between 1820 and 1840 particularly with the proto-industrialized Mughal Bengal ( modern day Bangladesh), through the activities of the East India Company. ... Bengal or Bangladesh produced Tea, Jute, Opium (( Opium was produced in a district call 'Nilphaamari' in Bangladesh which was supplied to China by The East India Company & the sole reason behind The Opium Wars.))
      The region is one of the largest rice producing areas in the world, Bangladesh being the world's 3rd largest rice producer & West Bengal being India's largest rice producer. Other key crops include jute, tea, sugarcane,wheat,etc. There are significant reserves of URANIUM, limestone, natural gas and coal in the districts of Sylhet, Meghalaya & Assam in Bangladesh. Major industries include textiles, leather goods, pharmaceuticals, shipbuilding, banking and information and communication technology.
      When Bengal was reorganized, Penang, Singapore and Malacca were separated into the Straits Settlements in 1867. British Burma became a province of British Raj. Western areas, including the Ceded and Conquered Provinces and The Punjab, were further reorganized. Northeastern areas became Colonial Assam. The Partition of British India in 1947 resulted in Bengal's division on religious grounds.

      "Bengal sultanate" or modern day Bangladesh produced 52% of Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of Worlds GDP. Bengal or modern day Bangladesh was first to fall to The East India Company at the Battle of Palashy/Plassey. .. that's why British East India Company HQ was located in Calcutta in undivided Bengal. ..Narayanganj Distric just 10km south to Dhaka in present day Bangladesh was the hub for the British trade & used to call "Dundee of the East". .. Since Bangladesh has the most fertile soil in the World British East India company cultivated opium in a district call "Nilphaamari" in present day Bangladesh 200+km north to Dhaka & delivered to China which was the sole reason for Opium wars.
      The Bengal Presidency or modern day Bangladesh at the height of its territorial jurisdiction, it covered large parts of what is now South Asia and Southeast Asia ( From Afghanistan to the west to Singapore to the East). Bengal was the economic, cultural and educational hub of the British Raj .. Historically, Bengal or Bangladesh has been the industrial leader of the subcontinent & produced 52% of the Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of the world GDP during British Raj & & fueled the First Industrial Revolution in Europe & America in the period from about 1760 to sometime between 1820 and 1840 particularly with the proto-industrialized Mughal Bengal ( modern day Bangladesh), through the activities of the East India Company. ... Bengal or Bangladesh produced Tea, Jute, Opium (( Opium was produced in a district call 'Nilphaamari' in Bangladesh which was supplied to China by The East India Company & the sole reason behind The Opium Wars.))
      The region is one of the largest rice producing areas in the world, Bangladesh being the world's 3rd largest rice producer & West Bengal being India's largest rice producer. Other key crops include jute, tea, sugarcane,wheat,etc. There are significant reserves of URANIUM, limestone, natural gas and coal in the districts of Sylhet, Meghalaya & Assam in Bangladesh. Major industries include textiles, leather goods, pharmaceuticals, shipbuilding, banking and information and communication technology.
      When Bengal was reorganized, Penang, Singapore and Malacca were separated into the Straits Settlements in 1867. British Burma became a province of British Raj. Western areas, including the Ceded and Conquered Provinces and The Punjab, were further reorganized. Northeastern areas became Colonial Assam. The Partition of British India in 1947 resulted in Bengal's division on religious grounds.
