    [EP 2] Hooghly: River of Rivals
    2025/10/07

    Before the British Empire built its monolithic stage in India, a chaotic and ruthless audition took place on the banks of a single river.

    In this episode, we travel back to a time when Bengal was a miniature Europe—a geopolitical chessboard where the Portuguese, Dutch, and French fought a shadow war for the riches of the East. This is the forgotten prequel to the Raj; a story of shifting alliances, strategic gambles, and clashing ambitions. Discover how this ‘river of rivals’ not only decided India's fate but also holds surprising lessons for the multipolar world of today.
