The railways are a good legacy of British colonialism.
But I hear the borders created by the British empire created long lasting tensions. I think the British created “Palestine” did they not?
They created Pakistan:
“On 2 June 1947, the last Viceroy of India, Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten, announced that Britain had accepted that the country should be divided into a mainly Hindu India and a mainly Muslim Pakistan, encompassing the geographically separate territories of West Pakistan (now Pakistan) and East Pakistan (now Bangladesh).”
