Independence+in+India

The independence movement in India is one of rebellion towards an oppressive, or dominating, authority. The Indian people, following a revolutionary leader, will come together to overcome the British, who are exploiting, or manipulating, India for economic purposes. However, the raising of weapons is not their method of revolt, as they would never stand a chance against the powerful, disciplined British forces. Instead, they use rather unconventional strategies to combat their oppressor, under the direct leadership of Gandhi.
