Explanation:
New Amsterdam was a 17th-century Dutch settlement established at the southern tip of Manhattan Island that served as the seat of the colonial government in New Netherland. The initial trading factory gave rise to the settlement around Fort Amsterdam. The fort was situated on the strategic southern tip of the island of Manhattan and was meant to defend the fur trade operations of the Dutch West India Company in the North River (Hudson River). In 1624, it became a provincial extension of the Dutch Republic and was designated as the capital of the province in 1625.
In 1664 the English took over New Amsterdam and renamed it New York City after the Duke of York (later James II & VII). After the Second Anglo-Dutch War of 1665–67, England and the United Provinces of the Netherlands agreed to the status quo in the Treaty of Breda. The English kept the island of Manhattan, the Dutch giving up their claim to the town and the rest of the colony, while the English formally abandoned Surinam in South America, and the island of Run in the East Indies to the Dutch, confirming their control of the valuable Spice Islands. What was once New Amsterdam became New York City's downtown.4

Mahatma Gandhi played the pivotal role in Indian national movement. His struggle started in South Africa when he faced racial discrimination because of his color of skin and was thrown out of train despite having the first class ticket and for the first time he launched Satyagraha (non-violent protest) against the policies of colonial government in South Africa.
After his success in South Africa in 1915 he returned to India and participated in freedom struggle of India. In India his first major achievement was during Champaran Satyagraha in 1917 where he fought for rights of peasants through non-violent means. Later his role in Kheda and Ahmedabad Satyagraha established his as the great leader in the India's freedom struggle. He devoted his whole life to discovering and pursuing truth. He was great social reformer and this is evident from his work for the untouchables and against caste discrimination. As a political philosopher he supported a religiously diverse India and was against the two nation philosophy which ultimately led to the partition of India in two parts. As an economist he believed in the principle of Sarvodaya economic model which means welfare of all. That's why he was the "yugapurusha" (one who inaugurated new era) and his contribution to Indian freedom struggle was unparalleled.
