India and Britain have a long and complicated history, starting in the 1600's.
By the late 1770's, the East India Company was starting to slowing gain political and territorial power for over 100 years. By the late 1800's, parliament places India under the direct control of Britain.
In 1869, the Suez Canal was opened. This made British goods and textiles easy to ship to India. British textiles were cheaper and made faster (machine-made) than India's own handmade textiles. This caused India's textile industry to collapse.
India was not happy under British rule. By the 1920's Mahatma Gandhi started campaigning for "noncooperation" and encourages people to avoid anything British. In the 1930's, he lead the Salt March, in an attempt to end Britain's monopoly on the salt market.
By 1947, India won its independence from Britain. The Muslim League wanted their own state. Britain divided India into two separate states: Muslim Pakistan and Hindu India.
Britain then left and withdrew from South Asia.

Answer:
Nazi Party, byname of National Socialist German Workers’ Party, German Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP), political party of the mass movement known as National Socialism. Under the leadership of Adolf Hitler, the party came to power in Germany in 1933 and governed by totalitarian methods until 1945. It was founded as the German Workers’ Party by Anton Drexler, a Munich locksmith, in 1919. Hitler attended one of its meetings that year, and before long his energy and oratorical skills would enable him to take over the party, which was renamed National Socialist German Workers’ Party in 1920. That year Hitler also formulated a 25-point program that became the permanent basis for the party. The program called for German abandonment of the Treaty of Versailles and for the expansion of German territory. These appeals for national aggrandizement were accompanied by a strident anti-Semitic rhetoric. The party’s socialist orientation was basically a demagogic gambit designed to attract support from the working class. By 1921 Hitler had ousted the party’s other leaders and taken over.
