Decolonization (US) or decolonisation (UK) is the undoing of colonialism, where a nation establishes and maintains its domination over dependent territories. The Oxford English Dictionary defines decolonization as "the withdrawal from its colonies of a colonial power; the acquisition of political or economic independence by such colonies."[1] The term refers particularly to the dismantlement, in the years after World War II, of the colonial empires established prior to World War I throughout the world. However, decolonization not only refers to the complete "removal of the domination of non-indigenous forces" within the geographical space and different institutions of the colonized, but it also refers to the "decolonizing of the mind" from the colonizers' ideas that made the colonized feel inferior.<span>[2]</span>

It is said that colonialism is an outgrowth of nationalism. For example, once the people in leading industrial powers started to strongly identify as British, French, German, American or Japanese (to name the most famous colonialists), they fell in love with the idea of planting their national flags all over the map, hence "Empire".

It is also believed that anti-colonialism is also an outgrowth of <em>nationalism</em>. When people from Asia, Africa and Latin America started to strongly identify as Indian, Egyptian, Argentinian etc. (to name some of the opressed countries), they started to value their own country and fell in love with it and wanted to replace the foreing flags where they belonged.

So we can say that a common ideal was nationalism.

During the 1700s and 1800s, european society entered a new historical period, which was characterized by a shift toward an urban
siniylev [52]

The name of this period is the (First) Industrial Revolution. It started in Great Britain in the middle 16th century as it was here where the technological innovations that triggered the whole proccess were started. It lasted until 1820s-1830s in GB but it was also consistently spread to other European countries. Most countries ended up experiencing this same process but at different speeds, depending on the kind of economy they had before.

Less people were required to produce agricultural goods due to new machinery and innovations. These people moved from rural areas to cities where they could find opportunities for different types of unskilled industrial work. Also the craftery was substituted by industrial type of production, where goods were elaborated in chain and such type of production did not require artist skills, but only to understand how the machine worked. This is how all unskilled workers from rural areas could find jobs in the new urban and industrial production system.

Moreover, the whole process was fostered by the great amount of raw materials coming from the colonies that European countries had all over the world and that were transformed into goods in the factories.

Finally, technological innovations go hand in hand with scientific development and to the extension of human knowledge about the world.
