This reproduction effected the British colonies culturally and religiously especially to Arica and South Asia. The natives of two continents transformed slowly and gradually through the western education system. The Britain opened new schools in colonies to teach the natives in English language. In the result of new educational system a hybrid culture emerged which led towards resistance and transformation of the natives. It affected all the aspects of natives’ lives, especially cultural and religious sides. The food, cloths, social norms and traditions also changed through the inculcation of new culture. It also affected the gender based relations and women started demand for equal rights. The changes occurred, were the result of the education introduced by the colonizers. Later on, appropriation of English language affected the natives’ culture and transformed them to a large extent. Religious conversation and transformation also overshadows the natives’ culture and religions. The natives’ social norms and traditions changed with the passage of time. Moreover, there will be no wrong to say that education played a vital role in molding the psyche of the natives. West established superiority over East by occupying the academia. They have given blow to various theories which they generated and practiced in East. Educational transformation played a vital role to transform the world from bi-polar to uni-polar. This research paper is an investigation that to what extent the religious conversion and western education played its role in transforming the natives. How it generated independence, interdependence and dependence in the world?  \nKeywords: Western Education System, Cultural Hybridization, Cultural Transformation, Religious Conversion.  \n*Adviser, Higher Education Commission (HEC) Islamabad.  \n**Assistant Professor, English department, Qurtuba University of Science and Technology, Peshawar.  \nEmail: [rasibcute@yahoo.com](rasibcute@yahoo.com)  \n***Teacher, Bahria University Islamabad.  \nIntroduction  \nEconomic prosperity due to the developments in science and technology played a vital role in the progress and promotion of culture. If any country makes progress in science and technology it’s culture automatically progress (Platteau, 2015) . The people start adopting the educational system, lifestyle, culture, language, religion and social normsand traditions of the developed nations. It is also fact that more wealth creates more hunger and greed at the same time. The developed nations tried to get more wealth through occupying the resources of the developing nations (Fanon & Farrington, 1969) . The colonizers/imperialists declare that the natives of developing countries are living in medieval ages and they need civilization.  \nThe colonizers came for trade in Africa and Asia, but with the passage of time they had not only developed their business but also occupied the administration of native land (Jones, 2000). After occupation they realized that it is their moral duty to civilize this uncivilized creature (Easterly & Easterly, 2006) . Along with religious teaching and preaching, they introduced and promoted the education of science and technology to attract the natives. They also promoted the education of science and technology in English (Achebe, 1958) . The endorsement of the English language left the negative impacts on the natives in one way or another. They felt difficulties in understanding the message of colonizers (Ngugi, 1986) .  \nHistory shows, education was priority of the Asians as compared to the Africansin pre-colonial period (Arowolo, 2010) . Texalia University played a vital role in the education of the natives.
