    The British East India Company established it's rule in 1757 then it was annexed in 1858 after the Indian Rebellion. Burma was originally part of British India but, it became it's own colony in 1937. India and Pakistan gained independence in 1947 from Britain then Bangladesh gained independence from Pakistan in 1971.
