While the patriots battled for freedom from Great Britain, upwards of 20,000 runaway slaves declared their own personal independence and fought on the side of the British.
The correct answer is "C".
The Partition of India of 1947 marked the beginning of the end of the British Rule over India. It consisted of the separation of the Indian subcontinent into 2 separate administrative territories. One of them being Pakistan and the other India. The separation was mainly due to religious reasons, as the Pakistani people were Muslim and the Indians practiced Hinduism.
There's multiple reasons for the lack of unity between the Indian tribes against the European invasion and expansion on their territory. The Indians were divided into multiple groups, some of which had already had problems and bad blood between them, so alliances between tribes like that were not the first choice in mind. Also, the Europeans played well tactically, by promising some of the tribes certain things if they ally with them, so once the Europeans managed to get what they wanted they were turning against their Indian allies who were pretty much isolated bu that point because of their actions. The conquering of new territories by the Europeans also was very big factor, because they managed to cut the connections between the tribes, thus not allowing them to be able to create alliances and be united against them.
