    Rani Lakshmibai was a leading figure of the Indian Rebellion of 1857 against the British rule.

    Born in 1828, she became the queen of #Jhansi after marrying the king, was widowed at a young age and refused to surrender to the British, leading her own army in the rebellion.

    "Von Algerien über Indien bis Vietnam erzählt #ARTE in drei Teilen die Geschichte der Befreiung von Fremdherrschaft."

    Nachdem die Briten "sich ihr Reich einverleiben, schließt sich Rani von #Jhansi dem Aufstand der Sepoys an, die jahrzehntelang der britischen Armee dienen mussten – eine der ersten großen Revolten in der #Kolonialgeschichte."
