11 ASIA Nationalism & independence
European Imperialism in Asia Europeans in the 18th & 19th centuries saw colonies as a measure of national power or importance and a key part of the system was known as imperialism. A strong country was supposed to have colonies to provide raw materials and markets to increase its wealth and importance in the world.

12 ASIA Nationalism & independence
Some countries, like Britain and France, controlled large areas of the world including Africa, Asia, Australia and the Americas. Another key factor was the work of Christian missionaries. They saw European colonization of Asia as a way to bring Christianity to a “uncivilized” land. Their work gave the colonizers another excuse to do whatever they wanted to do in Asia.

13 ASIA Nationalism & independence
Some European powers allowed large companies to come into the area of Asia they controlled, organizing the Asian population in whatever ways would guarantee the most efficient work force. Others set up colonial governments. They forced the Asian population into going along with colonial demands for work and use of local natural resources.

14 ASIA Nationalism & independence
Asian colonies were divided into administrative districts and put under the power or control of European officials. These administrators were expected to keep the peace, get the work done, and help “civilize” the Asian people. Nearly all Europeans working in Asia felt the local people were backwards and in need of Europe’s civilizing influence. Most knew nothing of the great cultures that were part of Asia’s past.

15 ASIA Nationalism & independence
Life as Part of a Colony Indirect Rule Some European powers like the British used indirect rule. They appointed local chiefs to be their enforcers, to collect taxes, run businesses the British wanted, and put down any trouble that began to emerge. Asians were lured into jobs with promises of wealth, power, and influence.

16 ASIA Nationalism & independence
Assimilation The French took a more direct approach, encouraging Asians to become French citizens, a policy known as assimilation. The French forced those they had conquered to give up their own customs and adopt French ways. Many people in Asian colonies controlled by France began speaking French and several applied for and were granted French citizenship.

17 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
INDIA A feeling of nationalism began to surface in India in the 1800’s. People began to be upset that their country was a part of the British colonial empire. They were treated like second-class citizens in their own country. The best jobs and education were reserved for the British.

18 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
Indian craftsmen were not allowed to run their traditional businesses if that meant competition for the British. One example was the production of cloth. Indians grew fine cotton and weaving was a traditional craft.

19 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
Indians were forced to send all their cotton to Britain and then had to buy the finished cloth from the British factories.

20 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
The first two groups formed to work for the rights of Indians were the Indian National Congress (formed in 1885) and the Muslim League (begun in1906). The Indian National Congress attracted mainly Indian Hindus. The Muslim League attracted Indians who followed Islam.

21 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
Years of contact with the British had taught Indians about western ideas of democracy and self-government. However, the British did not want to share these two ideals with their colonies. During World War I, millions of Indians joined forces with the British, hoping that their service would be rewarded with more control of their government.

22 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
The British Parliament even promised that when the war ended, India would be able to work toward self-government. Unfortunately, after the war ended, nothing changed. Indians were still second-class citizens.

23 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
Those Indians who began to protest were arrested under the new Rowlatt Act, which allowed the British to arrest and send Indians to prison for up to two years without a trial.

24 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
In 1919, British authorities opened fire on a large gathering of Indians in the town of Amritsar, claiming they were gathering illegally. Over 400 people were killed and another 1200 wounded. This massacre made Indians all over the country furious, and almost overnight they were united in a call for complete independence.

25 ASIA HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
Following the slaughter at Amritsar, Mohandas Gandhi began to urge Indians to refuse to cooperate with British laws they felt were unjust. He also urged them to be sure they did nothing violent in their protests. His goal was to show the world the injustice of British rule in India.
