martial races - 2025 NAFTA

Packet 2: Bonus 10

Heather Streets and Tejimala Gurung argue this designation created gendered hierarchies, which both idealized the masculinity of groups like the Punjabi and denigrated groups seen as seditious. For 10 points each:

[10h] What designation did colonial officials give South Asian groups considered suitable for recruitment? Groups given this designation still made up a disproportionate amount of soldiers in post-independence South Asian armies.

ANSWER: martial races [prompt on martial]

[10e] The martial race theory was promoted in the aftermath of the Rebellion of 1857, which is often referred to as a mutiny of these locally recruited soldiers employed by the British East India Company.

ANSWER: sepoys

[10m] An act named for these people was the precedent for various Criminal Tribes Acts that persecuted gender minorities in India. These people supposedly roamed India to strangle people to honour the goddess Kali.

ANSWER: Thugee [accept thugs]
