The Civil Disobedience Movement played a significant role and spread the message of full and complete independence of India. People all over took part in it ---- including women and students. Gandhi along with Vallabhbhai Patel were arrested. Moreover the government ----
- Took forcible possession of the Congress office.
- Lathi charges were common to disperse the crowds.
- Whipping became a common punishment.
- Freedom of press was curtailed.
- Nationalist literature ---- poems, stories and novels were banned in a large scale.
Yet, the movement continued to linger on. Gandhi was still in jail when the 'Communal Award' was announced in August 1932, by British PM Ramsay MacDonald. The award declared the depressed classes also to be minorities and thus separated them from the rest of Hindus. Gandhi took 'fast unto death' in its protest. Feelings of frustration set in people and political enthusiasm became less and less. Gandhi still succeeded in amending the Communal Award in accordance with the Poona Pact (1932) by which the depressed classes were to have joint electorates with other Hindus.
Eventually, the Civil Disobedience Movement was suspended in May 1933 and completely withdrawn in May 1934.

The present-day country is Thailand
Explanation:
Mongkut was the 43rd child of King Rama II. He was also known as Phrachomklao, posthumous name Rama IV, (born Oct. 18, 1804, Bangkok, Thailand, died Oct. 15, 1868, Bangkok), king of Siam (1851–68) who opened his country to Western influence and initiated reforms and modern development.
Mongkut was barely 20, when his father died in 1824. However the royal accession council instead chose his older who they considered has more experienced than him to reign as King Phranangklao (Rama III). To stay away from politics, Mongkut chose to become a Buddhist monk. A few years later he encountered a particularly pious monk who inspired Mongkut to turn to the strict discipline and teachings of early Buddhism. He became an accomplished scholar and abbot of a Bangkok monastery, which he made a centre of intellectual discourse that gradually came to involve American and French Christian missionaries and the study of Western languages and science. The reformed Buddhism that Mongkut developed gradually grew into the Thammayut order, which to the present day is at the intellectual centre of Thai Buddhism. Mongkut’s friends in the 1840s included many leading princes and nobles who similarly were excited by the West. Convinced of the necessity of accommodation with the West, they took the lead in managing the succession of Mongkut to the throne when King Rama III died in 1851.
