Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Pretty sure the answer is "the brits".
Nice shoehorn of anglo-saxon history, but those famines are all plagues and crop faliures for the most part.
They forced farmers to grow indigo crops instead of natural cotton/wheat/rice.
Im pretty sure that was not during the drought itself, nor really caused it. It economically made sense and then probably exacerbated the famine.
It wasn't just the drought. Indigo cropping destroyed the soil first, drought exacerbated the problems.
