| How did a small island nation come to rule over a quarter of the world’s population? The British Empire was the largest and most influential empire in history, spanning continents and shaping modern geopolitics. Beginning with maritime explorations in the 16th century, Britain expanded its influence through colonization, trade, and military conquests. The empire played a crucial role in global economic systems, from the transatlantic slave trade to the Industrial Revolution. However, its expansion came at a cost—wars, revolts, and exploitation marked its rule, leading to independence movements across India, Africa, and the Americas. This book explores the rise and fall of the British Empire, examining how it transformed cultures, economies, and political structures worldwide. If you want to understand the complexities of colonialism and its lasting impact, this book is a must-read. |
