It is a historical fact that the Britisher who rules over India for long 200 years, had themselves spent 400 years of slavery under much celebrated and civilized then Roman Empire.
There was time when the Roman were very powerful. They had colonized most of the west. They would look upon themselves as God destined to rule.
The historical records trace the founding of the Roman Republic to 509 BC. It was established, as a Roman empire, in 27 BC, and continued to prosper and perpetuate from first emperor Augustus (Caesar Augustus) through the last emperor Ramulus Augustulas (475-476 BC) till the final eclipse of the empire of the west in 5th century AD.
The slavery was quite common in those days. The defeated races were always subjected to slavery. The blockbuster English movie Gladiator aptly portrays the age — the glory the Roman, and their menial and minion subject. The Roman enslaved several races and the Britisher were also one of them. The scholars maintain that the Britisher remain in servitude as long as for 400 years in Roman empire.
Quoting the words of a Roman senator about the British “barbarians”, in 1784, William Pitt made a memorable slavery in them British parliament, and said :
Undoubtedly, it was sheer luck that made the Britisher the unchallenged sovereigns of a great part of India, and to control and use the country of millions like personal estates. Endorsing the fact, Jawaharlal Nehru, in his widely acclaimed book Discovery of India, says :
True, the Britisher were not a superior race. It was Germanic people — Angles and Saxons along with another nomadic hand Jutes who together invaded then Britain and dispossessed the Romanised Celt of Britain. They colonized the people and took under control that mass land in 4 AD.
Interestingly enough, Angles gave their names to that seized land as Angla-land that later became England. Revealing the fact Britannica Encylopedia (17th Ed, 1997 vol 1 P 406) says :
Then the British anointed by the phrase like the great Britains, in a mixed hybrid race of Roman and Germanic nomads with no roots .
Even English language can’t be credited to the Britishers. The original native speaker of English were Angles and Saxon, the Germanic people. Infact , the Britishers used to speak the Celtic — the language of so called slave in Roman Empire and the official language of Roman was Latin.

“ There is a people that will never rise to civilization; there is a people destined never to be free; a people without the understanding of useful arts; depressed the hand of nature below the level of the human species; and created to form a supply of slaves”

“She has always honoured thought and men of thought, the highbrows, and has refused to consider the men of the sword or the possessor of money as superior to them.’’
