India does not belong to only hindus,
it is a home to many religions.
And this post won't be all about the "history",
but also the spiritual aspect of it.

A thing which has tons of demerits and less amount of merit is not a good thing at all.
For over 300 years we suffered in our own home . Merciful Lord blessed us with great leaders who made this independence happen. The Hindu and Muslim brothers fought together with the British Raj. We showed our resistance and but the British didn't easily gave up. They tortured us, jailed us, shot us and made us feel ashamed of our own legacy. But Mahatma Gandhi taught us to tolerate everything, tolerate every blow of stick they hit us with. He taught of Satyagraha or the "non-violent form of resistance". "If someone slaps you on left offer him to slap on right" ,Gandhi said. There are numerous incidents which occurred during cruel reign of the East India Company. Lots of us were tortured , murdered but we still fought. Gandhi's form of resistance did delayed the independence but there were other people like Subhash Chandra bose who believed in violent form of resistance. Nevertheless under the leadership of many great people (and of course the world war ) , it finally ended.
The unity among people in those times was so incredible. There was no particular Indian or Muslim fighting for the independence, but all people under single name "Hindustani" or Indian. India is the only place where Jews weren't oppressed. It is a place where everyone has right to choose any religion he wants and speak about it freely. Before British rule and even before Mughal invasion, the Indian kingdoms were peaceful and and didn't invade neighbouring places(except some dynasties). Persians or Parsis after the Islamic revolution , were actually welcomed by the local Indian king and gave permission to practice Zoroastrianism faith freely. India the birth place of Sanatana Dharma and Buddhism is also the birthplace of yoga.
One of the most ancient language Sanskrit and ancient books are there only in India. The "Concept of zero" is also from India. India is the only place where there is Unity in sooooooooo much Diversity.
