Just been doing some reading about the extent of Hellenisation in the East in the 200s BC, and wondered if it's possible to get a "Seleucid Empire" style mixed state in British India?
By which I mean some sort of successor state to the British Empire, ruled over by a mixed English and Indian aristocracy. It'd be a dictatorial state, with a white ruling family that may perhaps have some Indian blood. The lower tiers of the administration would largely be Indian, as would the countryside, though there'd be white enclaves here and there and a strongly British-influenced culture.
Is it possible? And how would such a state form?
