The Great Hedge of India: A Remarkable 19th-Century Feat of Tax Enforcement
In the annals of history, certain human endeavors stand out as marvels of engineering, innovation, and determination. The Great Wall of China, the Pyramids of Egypt, and the Roman aqueducts are just a few examples of such monumental feats. However, hidden within the pages of history is a remarkable but lesser-known wonder: The Great Hedge of India. This sprawling, 2,500-mile-long living fence, constructed during the 19th century by the British colonial administration, had a singular purpose - to prevent salt smuggling and tax evasion. Let's delve into the fascinating story of this incredible structure.
