What tells us "The Revenge of Geography""

 American professor Robert D Kaplan, best known for his books "Monsoon" and "Balkan Ghosts", has written another excellent book, which is a New York Times bestseller. The title of the book is "The Revenge Of Geography". This book shows how hollow and baseless ideas like Mother Earth and Patriotism are. Human history tells us that when rivers change course, climate change makes it difficult to settle in a region, and the lack of resources leads to migration, the search for new pastures and fertile lands for Mother Earth. I stand out. I think history is more cruel than geography. No matter how hard you try to distort history, it reappears in its original form. Gentlemen who drive will be well aware of the fact that in the rearview mirror of the car repeatedly, If left unmanaged, they can be left astray and lose the right path. If you, after tearing up this rearview mirror, realize that the cars behind you will no longer be a nuisance and, you will move forward with satisfaction, then what can be said but misunderstanding and ignorance. They look in the mirror and try to find out something about the revenge of history. Lahore is not only a geographically important city, but also has a central position in terms of political activities. Political analysts believe that no political struggle can be successful unless it has the support of Lahore. As if this city is the center of change, the heart of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, but history shows that no one has been able to maintain his sovereignty over this city for more than 100 years. Today, in 2021, Lahore is the provincial capital of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The British Crown here in 1921 The Governor of Punjab Chaudhary Sarwar who is holding the post, then the British Governor Sir Edward Douglas Mclagan used to be in this seat. In 1821, the Lahore Darbar was all over Joban and Maharajah Ranjit Singh, the Lion of Punjab, used to be the Mokhtar of Lahore. The Sikhs set foot here in 1767 and in 1846, before 100 years had passed, the British snatched power from them. However, if we go back 100 years, Lahore was ruled by a weak Mughal rulers. In January 1748, Ahmad Shah Durrani ousted the Mughals and captured Lahore. Going back 100 years, in 1621, Lahore was under the rule of Mughal Crown Prince Jahangir. Jahangir's son Khusro Mirza revolted and besieged Lahore with Guru Arjun Dev but was defeated. Later, during the reigns of Shah Jahan and Aurangzeb, Lahore remained a part of the Mughal Empire. The founder of the Mughal Empire, Zahiruddin Babar, conquered Lahore in 1524 First Sultan Bahlol Lodhi of Delhi captured Lahore in 1441 and annexed it to his empire and then Lahore remained under the Lodhi dynasty till the arrival of Babar in the time of Sultan Ibrahim Lodhi. In 1305, the Mongols sacked Lahore and then the Tughlaq dynasty set foot in Lahore. Going further back, in 1266, Sultan Balban conquered Lahore, but in 1287, Amir Timur invaded and destroyed Lahore brick by brick. In 1223, Khwarizm, the current king of Uzbekistan, Jalaluddin, conquered Lahore, and in 1228, Sultan al-Tamish's army took over. In 1187, the Ghurids invaded Lahore and after the death of Sultan Shahab-ud-Din, the government of Lahore continued under the rule of his deputy and successor Qutbuddin Aibak. Earlier in 1021, after the conquest of Lahore by Sultan Mehmood Ghaznavi, Malik Ayaz was appointed as the Governor here. Stability is only for change, everything else is deceptive. When a student of history states these facts, the rulers of the time find these words offensive and instead of looking in the mirror of history and correcting their direction, they try to silence this historian and researcher who shows the mirror. They do not know that history survives even if the narrators are picked up and disappeared. History has a strong memory, like a camel's malice and an elephant's. The revenge of history never ends. When the Mughal ruler Aurangzeb Alamgir defeated his brother Darashkoh, he intended to suppress those who supported Darashkoh. A fatwa was issued to justify a quatrain of Sufi Sarmad and then Mansoor Hind, Sufi Sarmad was beheaded in Jamia Masjid Delhi. Aurangzeb thought that the image had been erased and the dead of history had also been buried with Sarmad but this grave is dead
