It would be nice if you'd also see how prosperous and wealthy the locals of some of these countries were just before the British invasion and when British just left. You'd see a great fall in wealth and prosperity of the locals during British rule (especially in India). Post Independence India did take some time to stabilize thanks in part to the partitioning of Pakistan. However, overall Indians have indeed had a better life since British left us. This whole notion of British rule was better than sovereignty is not true, especially for India.
