ఓపియం బిజినెస్‌తో బొంబాయిని నిర్మించిన సాసూన్ కుటుంబం | History of Bombay in Telugu

Описание: In this video from Alchemist Talks, we dive deep into the fascinating and dark history of the Sassoon family. Discover how a refugee family from Baghdad arrived in Bombay in 1832 and built a massive corporate empire, eventually controlling nearly 70% of the highly lucrative opium trade from India to China. We explore how David Sassoon and his descendants played a crucial role in building modern-day Mumbai, constructing vital landmarks like the Sassoon Docks in 1875, the David Sassoon Library, and numerous hospitals and textile mills. The video also covers their massive profits during the American Civil War, their role in the global cotton industry, and how they helped establish the HSBC bank. Finally, learn why this immensely wealthy global dynasty collapsed by the third generation. We uncover how the loss of Chinese assets, the end of the British-China opium trade in 1907, and their assimilation into British high society led to the downfall of their empire.
