Is it true that the British invented curry, the Hindu religion, and the Indian language?

And is it true that anything of value pre-British (such as the Taj Mahal) was not Indian but Persian Muslims that ruled over the pajeets?
What else did the British invent that pajeets take credit for?

The Hindu religion was like the ancient Greek one in that it was disorganized and decentralized, India has a gazillion languages, a thousand castes and still has claim from afghanistan to burma as irredentism. The idea of a unified India with one faith, one people, one language is artificial

The more you learn about India, the more you realize they didn't do a lot of stuff they said. Its like one long ass scam.

They keep blaming Muslims. Yet despite their seething, Muslims had a huge impact on the whole subcontinent. Delhi sultanate + mughals is basically 500+ years of consecutive rule. A lot of stuff they claim is Indian had Muslim influence.

And no don't give a shit about Zutt Muhammad. I just am able to recognize the large Islamic influence in India.

Kinda? The partition was sort of a crystallisation of india, setting shit in stone. The problem is thst before that a lot of indian culture was just absorbing stuff from more worthy sources. Their greatest kingdoms never last or are muslim. That sort of thing. Curry in the modern sense came about from the British trying to put the native food into something that resembled actual food rather than modern indian street food. The indians did and still kinda do revere the brits so they started mimicking them. Still goyslop tho.

The caste system has like 500 subcastes but the constitution, written by an untouchable, outlawed it. Except instead everyone is now part of the umbrella castes and everyone knows who you are by your name, job and in the countryside, clothes. So it never went away, just was condensed. That sort of came about from the great census where the brits tried to impose order and sanity on the nation, since there were too mant categories. The author just followed along.

>British invented curry
Curry means any dish in sauce in India. The thing sold as "curry powder" in the west was indeed made by Englishmen.
>Indian language
There's one hundred of them, and no.
>Hindu religion
By Christian westerners in general not just Brits. There were 100 religions in India with little resembling an agreed doctrine. "Hinduism" as a unified view to organise that mess was made by Jesuits in the 17th-18th centuries then Indologists of the 19th century in European universities to mentally navigate through the many religions of India.
