As an Indian, I always think it would be fucking hilarious if the British covered independence the way we do Pakistan. Like, obviously it's a very deeply traumatic experience for both Muslims & Hindus who lived in the region, in a way that British citizens can never comprehend. But politically it's fucking wild that the end of Indian colonial history in textbooks is basically "we finally won independence but Pakistan was mean and wanted its own independence :("
