Gandhi

For many years, one of the lar­gest coun­tries in the world, India, was a colony of the Bri­tish Empire. That meant that milli­ons of Indi­ans, who were peo­ple with dif­fe­rent cul­tu­res and reli­gi­ons than the Bri­tish, were gover­ned from Lon­don and had no rights, and could not even take advan­tage of the natu­ral resour­ces in their home­land. Gandhi set out to con­vince his com­pa­tri­ots that they had to fight toget­her –wit­hout using vio­lence– to put an end to this unjust tre­at­ment.
