Feelings were nervous and frightening
During this time, it was China that mostly remained a land-based empire. This is due partly to the fact that China occupied a large area of land, and didn't need more resources.
Johann Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press around 1448 had a significant impact on the spread of ideas in Europe and beyond. Printing technology traveled quickly across Europe and, at a time of great religious change, played a key role in the success of the Protestant Reformation. Reformation leader Martin Luther could only preach to a small number of people, but the printed word could spread his message to thousands more
The printing press drastically cut the cost of producing books and other printed materials. Prior to Gutenberg’s invention, the only way of making multiple copies of a book was to copy the text by hand, an laborious and intensely time-consuming occupation usually performed by monks. The materials involved were also costly: Monks wrote on treated skins, known as vellum, and a single copy of the Bible could require 300 sheepskins or 170 calfskins. Printing onto paper made copying cheaper and faster.

The correct answer is C) Simon Commission did not have a single India member.
Identify the appropriate reasons for the boycott of the Simon Commission by the Indian: "Simon Commission did not have a single India member."
When we talk about the Simon Commission we are referring to the Indian Statutory Commission of 1928. It was formed by the members of the British Parliament who visited India to investigate the situations and possible reformations in the country. However, Indian people strongly opposed to the formation of that commission by the simple fact that there were no Indian people in that group. So, how foreign politicians were going to implement political reformations in Indian without the participation of the native people of India?
That is shy prominent Hindu people such as Mahatma Gandhi, Nehru, and the Muslim League protested.
