Hon. Major Dost Muhammad Hazara (Hazaragi: دوست محمد) O.B.I, I.D.S.M, I.G.S.M, S.B, (born 1850s) was a Subadar-Major from Baluchistan, British India from 1880s until 1933. Was very distinguished officer in Indian British army

Third Anglo–Burmese War

The war was the culmination of British expansionism in Southeast Asia during the 19th century. Burma was seen as a valuable prize due to its natural resources, including teak, oil, and rubies. The British also wanted to establish a buffer zone between India and China, which they saw as potential rivals.

The war began in November 1885, when a dispute over the Burmese government's treatment of British merchants led to the British sending an ultimatum demanding concessions. When the Burmese government refused, the British launched a military campaign.

The Burmese army was poorly equipped and trained, and was quickly defeated by the British. The British captured Mandalay on 28 November 1885, and the Burmese king, Thibaw, was deposed and exiled to India. The British then declared Burma a province of British India.

The war was controversial at the time, with some British politicians and intellectuals criticising the government's expansionist policies. However, the annexation of Burma was widely supported by the British public, who saw it as a triumph of British power and civilisation over a backward and barbarous culture.

During the war, the British Empire conquered the Kingdom of Burma and incorporated it into its Indian Empire. The Burmese army was no match for the British, who quickly captured the capital city of Mandalay. The war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Mandalay on 1 January 1886, which formally annexed Burma to British India.

Expedition to British East Africa 1896

The Expedition to British East Africa also know as Battle honour was a military campaign conducted by the British Empire in 1896 to suppress an uprising by the Nandi people of Kenya. The Nandi had been resisting British colonial rule and had attacked several British settlements in the region.

The British sent a force of over 4000 soldiers, led by General Horace Smith-Dorrien, to put down the rebellion. The campaign was marked by brutal tactics on both sides, with the British using machine guns and artillery against the Nandi, who responded with guerrilla warfare tactics.

The British eventually succeeded in defeating the Nandi, but at a heavy cost. Over 200 British soldiers were killed or wounded, and many more died from disease. The Nandi suffered even greater losses, with estimates of up to 10,000 killed.

The campaign was controversial at the time, with some British politicians and intellectuals criticizing the government's use of force against the Nandi. However, it was seen by many as a necessary measure to maintain British control over the region and protect British settlers from further attacks.
