The East India Company and the Great Bengal Famine

The Great Bengal Famine of 1770 kills 10 million people. The East India Trading Company's army in 1800 had 200,000 soldiers. That is a massive army today. It is more than twice the size of the active Ukrainian army in 2022. Even once they fully build up their army, at the peak of the Napoleonic Wars, 13 years later, the entire size of the British army is about 250,000 troops. They are capable of killing people with numbers that defy comprehension.
