Question

This kicked off the beginning of the Indian independence movement.

Answer 1

The correct answer is the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The people of India were upset that the British were in power. The British had placed stout taxes, enforced their customs on the Indians, and did not respect the higher stations of society such as landowners, or royalty. The British made the mistake of having more soldiers from India, or sepoys, than actual British soldiers in their armies. The British now had the people of India up in arms and would soon find themselves very outnumbered and facing the rebellion.
