Welcome, time-traveler! Calcutta, now known as Kolkata, has always been a hub of activity. Here's a brief history:
Pre-Partition (1905) - Calcutta was a small but bustling city in the British Empire, with the famous Writers' Building (now a museum) as a symbol of the Raj.
Partition and Independence (1947) - After the British left, Calcutta merged with neighboring Howrah to form the city of Kolkata (note: no one really knows how this happened, but it did).
