You mean the Koh-I-Noor? The diamond given by Maharajah Ranjit Singh to Queen Victoria as part of the Last Treaty of Lahore?
Probably something to take up with Maharajah Ranjit Singhβa family, no?
We didn’t steal anything, we won trophies in battle.
If they wanted to keep their stuff they should have fought harder, simple as.
Most of the stuff that is alleged to have been stolen was actually gifted by the government at the time. Most of the things in the Museums are, legally, and ethically British. Irrelevant of what the left like to believe. A lot of the time the Brits just traded or bartered their way to excellence.
who keeps posting this shit? Yes, the world was a darker place even just 80 years ago. Did Britain make it darker? Really, compared to Russia nowadays or China nowadays? No
Ass diamond.
We named restaurants after it …what more is required…
Yeah those diamonds are protected and secured in the UK instead of being in some trash pile in India. How awful.
