How was Britain made into a nation State? |
| Answer» Unlike Germany and Italy, Britain\'s nation making process had not been drawn out through sudden upheavels and revolts, rather it was the result of a long drawn out process in which the key role was played by the English Parliament. Before the first half of the eighteenth century, ther had been no country in Europe named Britain. Rather, it was simply a group of islands which had various ethnic groups such as English, Scot, Welsh and Irish who differed in cultural and political traditions. It was the English Parliament which overthrew the English Monarchy in 1688 and acted as a weapon in forging nationalism among the English men. Under the guidance of the English Parliament, the Act of Union was signed between English and Scot men in 1707 which established English domination over the Scot. This was the same reason why the English Parliament was dominated by English men. This led to the formation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain. The English men, through the Act, had not only established political and social dominance over the Scots, especially the Catholics in the Scottish Highlands, but culturally and traditionally also. The Scottish Highlanders were not allowed to use their ancient Gaelic language, wear their traditional costumes or even enjoy their cultural rights. The English then targeted on the Irish soil which was dominated by Catholics and Protestants. The English men tactfully mobilised popular support among the Protestants and supported them in suppressing the Catholics. After a failed revolt by Wolfe Tone\' and his Irish men (1798), the English men finally merged the Irish land to the British nation in 1801. Even after unification, the English men adopted several measures to unify the nation internally like "God Save The Noble King" (National Anthem), modern English language and Union Jack, the British Flag. | |

Describe the stages of Italian Unification. |
| Answer» Like Germany too, Italy had a pretty long history of political fragmentation. Before unification, Italy was divided into seven states out of which only the Sardinia - Piedmont province was under the Italian princely house. The rest ie, the Northern states, Central states and Southern states were under the Austrian Habsburg Empire, Pope and Spanish Bourbon family of kings respectively. The complete process of Italian unification began right in the 1830s when Giuseppe Mazzini, an Italian Revolutionary, built a coherent programme visualizing his dream of the Unified Italian Republic. However, failed revolutions in 1831 and 1848 now meant that the mantle of Italian unification now fell upon the crown of King Victor Emanual II, the ruler of Sardinia Piedmont province. Then, the prosperous middle class elite in the province believed that Unification would help establish political dominance and possible economic development. Thus, Count Camillo de\' Cavour was declared the leader of the unification movement who was just like any other prosperous member of middle class elite yet, a tactful diplomatic politician. Using a tactful diplomatic alliance with France engineered by Cavour, they defeated the Austrian forces in 1859. Just a few months later, Giuseppe Garibaldi and his popular "Red Shirts" (Expendition of 300, 000) joined the fray. They marched to Southern Italy and successfully mobilised popular support among peasants to drive off the Spanish forces in 1860. Finally, in 1861, King Victor Emanuel II was declared king of United Italy and Rome, its capital. | |

Answer» 2) The new Tory government which came up in Britain in the 1920 s appointed a Statutory commission led by Sir John Simon. The objective of the commission was to look into the constitutional system of India after Non Cooperation Movement and suggest reforms. However, the Simon Commission had a small problem - it was ALL BRITISH and had no single INDIAN member. This indicated Indian inferiority and Indians became furious. As a result, when the Commission arrived in Lahore, India in 1928, it was greeted with black flags and placards saying "SIMON GO BACK!!!". All parties showed significantly equal participation in the protest rally. 1) POONA PACT, 1932 = B.R. Ambedkar, a prominent dalit leader who organized Dalits into the Depressed Class Commission in 1930, clashed with M.K. Gandhi in the Second Round Table Conference in 1931 while demanding seperate electorates for Depressed castes. Gandhiji felt that seperate electorates would slow down the process of their integration with the society. So, he began fasting upto death and ultimately, Ambedkar accepted Gandhiji\'s superiority. The result drawn led to the Poona pact of September 1932. This pact ensured reserved seats for the Depressed Castes (now, Scheduled Castes or SC) in the legislative councils but they were to be elected by a General Electorate. |

Explain the ideas of Satyagraha according to Gandhiji |
|
Answer» Satyagraha emphased the power if truth and the search for the truth.it says if the cause was true ,if the cause was against injustuce then the physical force is not required to fight the oppression or opponent. Mahatma Gandhi had returned to India in January 1915 from South Africa where he had brought several political and social reforms through a novel method of mass agitation known as SATYAGRAHA. It emphasized the power of truth and its need in the society. This method of passive resistance suggested that if the cause was true and the struggle was against injustice, then physical force won\'t be required to fight the oppressor. Without seeking vengeance or being aggressive, a Satyagrahi can easily win a battle. This is by appealing to the conscience of the oppressor. The oppressor should never be forced to accept truth. Rather, he needs to be convinced of the need to search for truth in the society. Thus, according to him, truth was bound to ultimately triumph. *Mahatma Gandhi returned to India in January, 1915. His heroic fight for the Indians in South Africa was well-known. His novel method of mass agitation known as Satyagraha had yielded good results.*The idea of Satyagraha emphasized the power of truth and the need to search for truth.In 1916, Gandhi travelled to Champaran in Bihar to inspire the peasants to struggle against the oppressive plantation system.In 1917,crops field in Kheda district of Gujrat, but the government refused to remit land revenue and insisted on its full collection.*In 1918, Mahatma Gandhi intervened in a dispute between workers and mill owners of Ahmedabad. He advised to workers to go on strike and to demand a 35% increase in wages.*Satyagraha brought Gandhiji into close touch with the workers in the urban areas. |
