How did upstart outsiders forge vast new empires in early modern Asia, laying the foundations for today's modern mega-states of India and China? Vastly outnumbered and stigmatised as parvenus, the Mughals and Manchus pioneered similar strategies of cultural statecraft, first to build the multicultural coalitions necessary for conquest, and then to bind the indigenous collaborators needed to subsequently uphold imperial rule. In How the East Was Won, Andrew Phillips answers reveals the crucial parallels uniting the Mughal Empire, the Qing Dynasty and the British Raj.
