India was named after the southern portion of a Pakistani river. No clue why they kept that British-given name so long.
I know Bharat is technically the countries native name, but it just sound so much more retarded than India
Well the alternative is being named after a Pakistani province which you'd think would piss them off.
>British given
You mean Greek/Persian given?
No, it's definitely British given, even if it's Persian in origin.
"India" and its variants has been used to describe that V shaped subcontinent for well over 500+ years. The Portuguese got there long before the Brits and called it Índia
Reread what you're replying to, retard.
Bharat is more descriptive of them as a people because it has rat in the name
Bharat makes them sound like some random 3rd world SEA nation that no one's ever heard of.
lmao, I said the exact same thing. Its true though, and whats funny is that I cannot articulate exactly why. Bharat really does sound like the name of some small SEA country
I mean, its better than Hindustan at least...
Bharat sounds more retarded. Pajeets can't have nice things
False but I support Bharat because native americans prefer to be called indians and they're better than hindus so they can have the name
Hindoostan was kino
aye
Won't happen
BRAAAAAAP
Bharat, Kyiv, Beijing
Any other country newspeak I'm missing off?
It's been called Beijing for at least 80 years.
But to answer your question, Mumbai.
Turkeyie
Myanmar, probably.
Canada = Kanata
Almaty = Nur-Sultan
*Astana*
Its Astana and it was renamed back to Astana after failed coup
Czechia, Sri Lanka, Indochina
Swaziland -> eSwatini
You really think I'm gonna call your country fucking Bharat?
"I can't wait to vacation in Bharat!" nobody will still ever say
I sort of off-hand mentioned I would like to visit India to a couple talking about their recent trip there (White male, Indian female couple). The woman asked why in a sort of surprised way and then told me there's nothing worth seeing in India and that it's an overcrowded shithole and that the only nice part was Goa.
The Bill will never pass. Even the RW retards are hating this.
Fair enough
Congrats, India !
