@@jamubius That's not actually true but as an Indian myself, I really don't have much disdain or problem with the British holding the jewel. Throughout history people have conquered and gotten rewards out of it and that's just how it is. Also the fact being it's just a jewel and I honestly don't have any sentiments for it. The only thing if any that I may have a problem with is that people trying to say it wasn't taken under colonial circumstances, regardless of whether it was a peace treaty or violence.
Also the Koh I Noor wasn't technically stolen, as Duleep Singh agreed to forfeit it to the British crown during the 1849 conquest of Punjab and the Treaty of Lahore: "III. The gem called the Koh-i-Noor, which was taken from Shah Sooja-ool-moolk by Maharajah Runjeet Singh, shall be surrendered by the Maharajah of Lahore to the Queen of England." Sentiments aside, the fact is Britain is the legal owner of the diamond, and while Britain is lying when they said it was peacefully transferred (most likely never would have been without a war), this is just how a majority of countries did things back then: they invaded and looted. We can't hold them to modern standards. The Koh I Noor is now an important relic of the British crown passed on for generations among the female line. Also, tbh India has a lot of problems to focus on besides the diamond and "avenging" history, such as the high human trafficking, mistreatment of women, large poverty, and others.
Not everything. Some of the stuff was donated, collected on exploration voyages, or purchased. I do agree some of the stolen stuff should be returned (but under the logic that EVERYTHING captured should be returned, should the captured Napoleonic eagle standards in British museums be returned to France?).
@@henrylivingstone2971 why would they return things that they can properly educate people about with ease when we have kept it safe and owned it for many years. Just because it was once owned by someone else doesnt mean that historical other people came to own it. I believe the British museum efficiently teaches many people about different cultures and times whereas if we returned the artefacts then many people will not be taught these things no one could actually see everything due to the cost of going to every country to see and many countries will lose or simply refuse to show the history due to the beliefs in the area. Much better in a Museum teaching millions.
@@jamubius So you’re justifying theft. There’s no reason why a perfectly accurate replica couldn’t serve the same purpose as the original. A professional museum grade facsimile could do the same as the authentic artifact. Just because a particular person or organization has possessed something for a long time doesn’t mean they’re entitled to keep the item in question. It’s not like people haven’t been asking for these items to be returned. The Greek have been asking for the Elgin marbles ever since they left the Parthenon. The British museum teaches squat, you talk about accessibility but have you thought of people who can’t afford to travel to the UK? If anything it’s enriching the British public at the expense of the countries of origin. And it has been researched that the average museum goer spends less than 20 seconds at any given exhibit, twenty seconds! Not much learning going on there, so try as the British museum might, they’re not necessarily imparting any knowledge to their audience. You also seem to be making a lot of assumptions regarding local practices and stigmas in countries you seem to know little about. Also I don’t understand why a facsimile in place at the British museum can’t do the same as the original.
@@henrylivingstone2971 That aside, alongside India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran also laid claims to the diamond and this could cause friction between relations if India got the jewel back. It's better off being left in Britain by this point.

Be careful what you return. Like you probably shouldn't go returning stuff to countries like syria or liberia cause the artifacts might as well be destroyed.
If it wasn't recovered the artifacts would've either be destroyed or lost forever. It's stupid to return the artifacts since the countries can't maintain them and will probably be sold off or stolen if given back.
If the countries ask for it, sure. But it might be destroyed or sold anyways. Not many people in Africa or rural parts of South America go to museums in their spare time.
Yes there was....it just hadn't been invaded by Europeans at that point. There was no country called "The United States of America" at that point, but obviously the land was there and people lived there...
