Almost like God had been delivering opportunity to all and also pretty much suggesting no one succeeds, human heritage has noticed empires going up with pooled pride then crumpling down with division. In spite of the fact that European empires followed suite in the making of empires, almost due to a modern touch, it was revolutions which brought them down. Winning France and extending up to 'Sun never sets in the British Empire', it was the British Empire that ruled more.

Although begun as a business venture, with businessmen not really ruling, a basic right to arm themselves against pirates offered by an Indian ruler modified the history of East India Company, India plus the world. When this was united with 'united we stand', here (even the Scots!) and Indian known but Britain patented 'divide and rule' there, winning was a not impossible. When 'united we stand' was incredibly extended to native fighters, victory became smooth. Praising the ruled not serving rule; when denigration of local's imaginations and ways was added, even ruling was smooth. As if to play hide and seek, the rulers lived in cantonment spots and emerged outside particularly for comfort or work. Although the locals, who were called natives, dint entirely get handshakes with the rulers, rulers among them even became playing buddies. Very nearly proclaiming 'rulers of the world unite', the Brits even got support from the local chiefs. Years just went past and The united kingdom grew to become richer and natives poorer. Nonetheless, being skilled at hiding shortcomings and utilising loudspeaker for advantages, called propaganda machine, they even got respect as good rulers.

However, just about suggesting teaching of freedom, fraternity and equality- values of French Revolution, was not a good idea; it was the educated ones, who caused political revolutions that finally sent the Brits back to their isles. Increasing the disaster, not effectively planned partition of the subcontinent into India and the freshly shaped Pakistan on religious lines saw the carnage of hundreds of thousands. Empire itself had a major impact on the history of many countries of the world, as well as on Europe.

Similar to a number of British people disliking Germans, there are Indians, who loath the British and also accuse them of being accountable for the Indian famine, taking away money from India and using the 'divide and rule' policy in order to govern. However, there are also a lot of British people, who reason that Empire was good. They presume that Britain made India modern.

In relation to the modern world, the result of Empire on science technology and Industrial Revolution cannot be neglected. Almost using Briton's 'divide and rule', on Empire's effect on the West and the rest, the book with a strange title, 'Women's Power: Its Past, Its Present, Its Future: Femocracy' examines the pros and cons of the Empire and narrates the contributions it made in the formation of the modern world.
