Hi there!
Gandhi's reaction to the Lahore Resolution was muted; he called it "baffling", but told his disciples that Muslims, in common with other people of India, had the right to self-determination. Leaders of the Congress were more vocal; Jawaharlal Nehru referred to Lahore as "Jinnah's fantastic proposals" while Chakravarti Rajagopalachari deemed Jinnah's views on partition "a sign of a diseased mentality".
Hope this helps!

The historical development which illustrates the fulfillment of Winthrop's argument is:
(A) Polk negotiated a compromise with the British over Oregon.
Explanation:
Between 1859 and 1872, Great Britain and the US fought a bitter war for the control of Oregon. This war was caused by a stray pig; no wonder, the US termed it: "the Pig War." Earlier John Winthrop had argued that the United States, the New England, was to become "a city on a hill," very conspicuous to all men. Possession of the new land signaled an alliance with the word of God. Failure to uphold the human part of the covenant would expose the country to ridicule. President Polk, fighting the Pig War with Great Britain over Oregon without victory, was a sign of failure to uphold the covenant. The country was exposed to public ridicule because the war only ended with the signing of a treaty (a form of compromise), which ceded the whole of Vancouver to Britain and then Oregon to the US.

Answer:
When the Bolsheviks took power in November 1917, Russia was in chaos: supply shortages, soldiers in mutiny refusing to continue to fight with the German and the Austrian armies, hunger, disease and uncertainty. The terrible perfomance in the battles of the WWI Eastern Front and Russia´s unpreparedness for the war exacted a huge cost.
The Bolsheviks took power from a temporary democratic goverment that had assumed its powers in February 1917 thanks to an uprising in St. Petersburg. Their government was headed by Vladimir Ilich Lenin, the top leader. His government nationalized land and gave it to peasants, soviets (councils) of workers and peasants demanded empowerment. The war with Germany and Austro-Hungary continued, with the Russian army losing battles and territory.
In that situation, Lenin decided the new authorities should focus on domestic issues, and stop the war. Bolshevik Russia and Germany negotiated the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk and signed it in early 1918. It brought peace with a huge price for Russia: it lost millions of people of its population and agreed to enormous territorial losses.
