Quotes
The Governor of Bombay about the Sepoy Mutiny - "A delicate and dangerous machine, which a little mismanagement may easily turn against us."
Mohandas Gandhi - "Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest."
Lord Kitchener about the British attitude and commander in chief - "It is this consciousness of the inherent superiority of the European which has won for us India. However well educated and clever a native may be, and however brave he may
prove himself, I believe that no rank we can bestow on him would cause him to be
considered an equal of the British officer."
Bill Gates - "It is really gratifying, for example, to visit India now and see that because they've had good educational institutions, and they've had a focus on it, there are more and more people in India participating in the world economy."

Conclusion
The conclusion of Imperialism in India is not a very good one. It started off with the British just wanting to change a little bit of the ways of India, but instead started a couple wars that were not needed. The sepoy mutiny broke out and many Indians and British were killed. Eventually it turned India against each other and the Hindus and Muslims were split up. Later, both religions broke out in attempt to dominate over the other one. The British then, took total control of India and changed many things and Industrialized most everything. The Indians made an attempt to overthrow the British but in the end, they lost all control of their own country.
