Story
In 1943 Winston Churchill and the British Empire needed millions of Indian troops, all of India's industrial output, and tons of Indian grain to support the Allied war effort. Such massive contributions were certain to trigger famine in India.

The result: the Bengal Famine of 1943-44, in which millions of villagers starved to death.
