Descrizione
About The Book: In the era of British colonialism, India was a cornerstone of the British Empire, under the British Raj, central to British dominance in South Asia. Ceylon (Sri Lanka) was a British colony from 1815 to 1948, famous for its tea industry. The Straits Settlements—Singapore, Malacca, and Penang—served as key British trading posts in Southeast Asia. British North Borneo (now Sabah, Malaysia) was a protectorate from 1881 to 1963, vital for its resources. Hong Kong, acquired in 1842, flourished as a major port and financial hub, returning to China in 1997, marking the end of British colonial rule in the region.
