The tl;dr is that India and Pakistan used to be a dozen different countries until foreigners showed up with guns and decided to redraw the map. All those international tensions didn’t evaporate, and it’s more or less the equivalent of trying to put angry cats together in the same bag. The British didn’t cause the tensions, but their fuckery absolutely made it worse.
The article also doesn’t cover the Sikh separatists, but they’ve also been around since the East India Trading Co merged their empire with India, and the current Indian government has been assassinating supporters.
You know what would improve Wikipedia? A “search this page” option.
I was looking to see if the formation (imposing) of Pakistan and India was around 1918 along with all those other great Treaty of Versailles decisions like Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia.
I gave up. With long articles, we need a search within the article.
Speaking about the app. I don’t know about the website because all Wikipedia opens the app. I can’t even go there deliberately in a browser.
I didn’t downvote you, for the record lol.
