As recently as 1928, a single empire — stretching from Yemen to Burma, from the Arabian Sea to the Himalayas — was united under one name: The Indian Empire.
It was home to a quarter of humanity, shared one passport, one army, one rupee… and then, within fifty years, it shattered into twelve modern nations.

In this thought-provoking episode, host Raghav Sharma sits down with historian and author Sam Dalrymple to discuss his groundbreaking book “Shattered Lands”, which unravels how the British Raj fractured into the countries we know today — India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Nepal, Bhutan, Yemen, Oman, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.
Together, they explore the untold story of how this empire was built — and then broken — through wars, revolutions, betrayals, and visions of nationhood.
