Question: How many people outside the country that contains the organization that uses 25 North Colonnade, were under British rule in 1945?

the indian rebellion of 1857 was a large-scale rebellion by soldiers employed by the british east india in northern and central india against the company's rule. the rebels were disorganized, had differing goals, and were poorly equipped, led, and trained, and had no outside support or funding. they were brutally suppressed and the british government took control of the company and eliminated many of the grievances that caused it. the government also was determined to keep full control so that no rebellion of such size would ever happen again. <SEP> british colonial rule introduced western elements of culture to burma. burma's education system is modelled after that of the united kingdom. colonial architectural influences are most evident in major cities such as yangon. many ethnic minorities, particularly the karen in the southeast and the kachin and chin who populate the north and northeast, practice christianity. according to the the world factbook, the burman population is 68% and the ethnic groups constitute 32%. however, the exiled leaders and organisations claims that ethnic population is 40%, which is implicitly contrasted with cia report (official us report). <SEP> Between 1945 and 1965, the number of people under British rule outside the UK itself fell from 700 million to five million, three million of whom were in Hong Kong. Though Britain and the empire emerged victorious from the Second World War, the effects of the conflict were profound, both at home and abroad. Much of Europe, a continent that had dominated the world for several centuries, was in ruins, and host to the armies of the United States and the Soviet Union, who now held the balance of global power. Britain was left essentially bankrupt, with insolvency only averted in 1946 after the negotiation of a $US 4.33 billion loan (US$56 billion in 2012) from the United States, the last instalment of which was repaid in 2006. At the same time, anti-colonial movements were on the rise in the colonies of European nations. The situation was complicated further by the increasing Cold War rivalry of the United States and the Soviet Union. In principle, both nations were opposed to European colonialism. In practice, however, American anti-communism prevailed over anti-imperialism, and therefore the United States supported the continued existence of the British Empire to keep Communist expansion in check. The "wind of change" ultimately meant that the British Empire's days were numbered, and on the whole, Britain adopted a policy of peaceful disengagement from its colonies once stable, non-Communist governments were available to transfer power to. This was in contrast to other European powers such as France and Portugal, which waged costly and ultimately unsuccessful wars to keep their empires intact. <SEP> Martin Wheatley is a British financier, formerly managing director of the Consumer and Markets Business Unit of the Financial Services Authority in the UK, and is the former CEO of the Financial Conduct Authority. <SEP> 25 North Colonnade is a commercial building in Canary Wharf, London formerly occupied by the Financial Conduct Authority, after having been solely occupied by its predecessor, the Financial Services Authority (FSA) until early 2013.
