Question

B) Explain ONE example of a nationalist movement in Asia that used nonviolence to win independence.

Answer 1

Answer:

An example of an Asian nationalist movement that used nonviolence to gain independence is the Indian independence movement.

Explanation:

During the 1920s, India's independence process was at its peak. In this decade, Mahatma Ghandi appeared as the leader of the independentist movement, and began to propose nonviolent positions to demand Indian independence from Great Britain, such as civil disobedience, strikes, peaceful protests and massive demonstrations without weapons. Eventually these tactics were successful and India gained its independence in 1947.
