The history behindIndependenceDay:
During the 1700s, the British arrived in India as traders. They were not, however, the first to arrive in India. In reality, they were preceded by the Portuguese and even the French. However, over time, they beat their European adversaries and finally conquered India. Initially, the East India Company, which was also the largest company at the time, dominated India rather than the British government. This all changed with the Indian revolt of 1857. Following this, India was directly ruled by the British monarch from 1858.
The Indian uprising of 1857 was precipitated by the Sepoy mutiny led by Indian soldier Mangal Pandey. Although the Indian uprising was futile and was ruthlessly suppressed by the British, the drive for totalindependenceincreased as a result of this event, since Indians witnessed the British brutality toward the Indian people. Many people associate the Indianindependencestruggle with Mahatma Gandhi, and while he was the campaign's diplomatic head, there were many other key personalities who helped to India's freedom. In reality, many leaders chose the route of violence rather than Gandhi's peaceful way. As a result, attaining liberation required tremendous sacrifices and the blood of countless Indians.
