I wasn't blaming him - I was guessing. I have no way of knowing if WTG is, or isn't, interested in Indian History, and I don't mind it if people don't know, Indians and foreigners alike. I certainly know only a bit about bits of it. If I'd have had any expectations of WTG knowing these details, they would have been based on the fact that the period he was refering to not only spanned a mere 190 years, it was also a historical experience his country shares with mine. But since I already have been told that the British Raj isn't taught in extensive detail in Britain, I had no such expectations.
