An amazing man who goes by the name Mahatma Ghandi has recently shook up the world by having the great British Empire grant India home rule. On the 15 of August 1947, Britain granted India independence. The newly liberated landmass has been divided into a Muslim Pakistan and a Hindu India. Not only has this man accomplished what was once thought to be impossible, but he has done so in a fashion that will forever revolutionize the art of rebellion. With his passive resistance, the people of India have brought the British Empire to its knees. This moment is not to be thought of as a loss for England, but as triumph for peace in these days of war.
Gandhi's fight for the freedom of India was a long and difficult journey, but his philosophy and education helped him to obtain his goals. The revolution was not a short one at all, taking almost twenty years to accomplish.

and Britain was forced to refrain. From there Gandhi set...
