-One of the earliest civilization of the

world was established in India way back thousand of years. The prosperous growth of india persisted for centuries and it has been united by numerous leaders and empires. However in 7th century CE, Arab Muslim attacked the country, and after a while european countries became entangled to the state affairs. Eventually western nations took control in India subcontinent by conquering the lands. In 1858 Several indian rulers and leaders joined together with the goal to revolt towards the West, the Sepoy Mutiny is one of the well known rebellion throughout the history yet it did not succeed, thus we could clearly see that even Britain colonize the subcontinent, still Indian people strive to win back their country. The religious sense of India is one of the key component why they have strong national consciousness and the intervention in their economy by destroying the textile industry, prohibiting them to make manufacture their own salt and draining their national resources, in addition they are often enraged by the British colonial officials conservative policies as well as racial prejudice. Afterwards, they established the Indian National Congress along with attempt to gain a stronger control in government for educated Indians and to establish a framework for civil and political discourse between Indian and British. In 1930, a Hindu Lawyer named Mohandas Gandhi lead a non violent resistance towards Western rule with his thousands of followers by picking salt in the sand. 

-Great Britain colonial rule to India began when several British merchants founded the East India Company. Since trading between India has been greatly hailed through ancient periods by Europeans, Indians have taken this opportunity. Indian Kings were lured by the luxurious presents and financial support offered by Western to them. As such they allowed the british to store the merchandise and created several warehouses, as well as giving them a freedom to construct shipping ports. Furthermore they even give British a permission to established their own army, which initially meant to protect the company, but eventually it exploited towards offensive motives. In order to invade a country it was said that you must first target their coastal barriers thats why having several sea port inside Indian lands was a great advantage of British empire. The East India company changed drastically from being a mere trading company to an organization which governed a vast area and eventually they conquered the sub continent regions of India one by one.

-Western always wanted to expand their territories to the east aiming to spread Christianity and find species. However when Industrial Revolution began, Europeans began to see Asia as a  sources of industrial material and viewpoint as market for western manufactured products. In my perception, Western easily conquered Asia because of their tricky tactics, they tend to engage with established sovereign nations, Instead of seeking to gain absolute control of vast region. Western also take opportunity of certain countries weakness to invade asia, like the collapsing of political power of a nation. In instance in India, British colonial empire used the decline of Mughal Empire as an advantage. Establishing a great power to the weak countries of Asia, accompanied by a handful of strong army with advance firearms technology, while dominating their economy, It then became facile to western to obtain Asian countries and spread their influence.

When Queen Victoria became empress of India  on 1858 it seems how they did not an  gave an equality treat for the Indian people under dominant control  by  British crown after the the unsuccessful  defeated  of Indian Rebellion against the  rule of the British  East Indian Company  to expand their rule in India,  and the Impact of the  imperialism of the  rule of British  which the established the British educational System  through spreading of English Language which  it the young Indians educated on English  which primary create education Indians  which also became the educated Indian in English became  the pioneer in the socio-political – economical and religious reform of India which and they established a congress part which called Indian National Congress which dominated the Indian movement for   independence over the Great Britain rule because of the result of increased the poverty by British Imperialism and  the political congress promoting an Indian Made goods and the movement to boycott the imported  British manufactured goods.   

2.Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.  

Based on the  video my Analyse that The Great Britain  they  made a relationship with India  to gain the trust of India through giving a presenting expensive gift for the Indian kings  and they  are also provision the financial support to Indian kings for gaining a Favour which it obviously  it seems the sayings that keep your friends  close and your enemies closer  to aim their hidden agenda and  which Britain did not invade by force of the India  because they worked closely  with some indian rulers and helping them in their arguments or wars or in other rules which the great Britain took this advantage to replace the Indian Ruler  to control the India.  the other more  are established of Their  Factories in different  part of India for their economic trade  purpose and to expand their rule,  furthermore research the other strategy that they use is the British rewarded those who had not joined in the rebellion against on their government rule due to the  fact that Britain had one of the smallest armies of all the major European powers because they had always relied on the millions of men they could call upon from India then until the great Britain started how they monopolize the India.

3. In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

Through triumph of Imperialism it expansion of everything by force or expansion the ruler of the the empire, or in other foreign countries. And the Europeans  always gained their power and wealth through conquering  and colonize other countries  by force  and invaded the different nations and empire to expansion the power in other land.  And based on the video it says that some people believes that  the nation could not  be great without the  colonization because of adopting in a different kinds cultures by other  foreign countries well I think there’s have a point.  Another thought that western nations are easily conquered  and  colonize the Asia because of their advancement  on technology, transportation which able to transfer in part of asia educations influence , their economic  status or international  trade  , weapons and their political and cultural  organizations  which it can say that western nations is a major colonialism because of their different strategies how they conquered the country. The Western country became stronger while Asians Empire and kingdoms became weaker because of invasion of western country   .

 

 

 

 

Indian nationalism developed as a concept during the Indian independence movement which campaigned for independence from British rule. The Indian Independence Movement was a series of historic events with the ultimate aim of ending the British rule in India. Indian nationalism is an instance of territorial nationalism, which is inclusive of all of the people of India, despite their diverse ethnic, linguistic and religious backgrounds.

2. Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

During around 1600 British East India Company arose and they built companies, businesses and factories all over India. It was created to serve as a trading body for English merchants, specifically to participate in the East Indian spice trade. As time goes by East India Company needed armies and man power to protect their businesses and agenda during that time.  British provided financial support to Indian Kings in some cases for gaining the favors of Indian kings. By following this cunning strategy, East India Company gained the favor of the king of Vijayanagara Empire, An empire that ruled over South India. British East India Company sometimes used to extend their support to some of the Indian rulers in battles. British wanted every emperor to fight with each other so that they can get some advantage out of it. They started interfering in Indian Politics in the name of help. We can clearly notice the divide and rule strategy of British East India Company that time. They strengthened their armies inside India and when the time they are capable to conquer other territories they fight against kings and empires to gain absolute power and control. 

3. In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

According to my own view of understanding, Imperialist country won in conquering Asia because of their strategies regarding trading spices, items and products all over Asia.  The goal of European countries was to gain profit and earn money from other countries.  European nations acquired great wealth and power from both the natural resources of the lands they conquered and the forced labor of the people from whom they took the land. The Age of Imperialism was fueled by the Industrial Revolution in Europe and the United States, and it profoundly influenced nation-building efforts in Japan and China. Most of the countries in Asia were not industrialized yet so the European nations and US took the advantage, and they much more advance with regards to technology and strategies how they will be dominant over Asia.

•Nationalism emerged in 19th-century British India both in emulation  and as a reaction against the consolidation of British rule and the spread of Western civilization. Year 1612, British Country aiming a having good relationship in Indian Country. Indian taking it for granted because that time, British known as one of the powerful country. But because of weaknesses of the leaders in India, British gradually conquer India. India maintain their sense of Nationalism despite of the presence of the European in their Nation by being open handed, promoting solidarity, and a sense of belonging despite European tricking them. Indian nationalism is an instance of territorial nationalism, which is inclusive of all of the people of India, despite their diverse ethnic, linguistic and religious

2. Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

•India has a rich recorded in history. But Europe had more economic power, better weapons and a certain European confidence which allowed them to slowly permeate into the Indian subcontinent till it was ruling the huge nation, but before it happened, Europe did strategies. At first, In the time of Mughal Empire, India company allowed British to establish the 1^st factor and they started operating as a business entity. Part of their plan, they provided support to Indian Kings for gaining the favors of India, because of the favors and support from British, India allowed Europe to rule over South India to open a new company and it follows by many companies around of India that held by Europe. Aside from that, British entering in trading even in politics in the name of help. As being their nationalism, they can produce from their own but because of the presence of Europe, they forcing to conquer India to make money. Previous Empire were weak, they just enjoying the expensive gifts from British but that ways was the key of British to manipulate gradually the huge nation of India until they conquered.

3. In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

•In the video sees how Imperialist country used their power to conquer Asia that is why they won in conquering Asia. In terms of military, Imperialist country had a well train soldiers and well educate to use technologies that they used to conquer Asia. Western goals are to expand their territories and they were interested in colonizing Asia for specifically reasons such as natural resources, cheap labor, to collect taxes, and also new consumers of European goods that brings huge impact and help to their economies because part of their goal is to make more money. Colonizing of Imperialist country brings impact to Asia esp. in belief, culture, tradition, and the way of living.

It all started during 18^th century, wherein European Nations gradually move by convincing these Indians to settle and involve British people to negotiate and establish their factories for economic gains. British wanted to rule India so they started battling with Portuguese, Indians, etc. In Anglo-mysore war, it proves that Tipu Sultan wanted also to raise nationalism and seek independence of India but he was shot dead by British people. 

The consolidation of the British India Company's rule in the Indian subcontinent during the 18th century brought about socio-economic changes which led to the rise of an Indian middle class and steadily eroded pre-colonial socio-religious institutions and barriers. Indian nationalism developed as a concept during the Indian Independence movement which campaigned for independence from British rule. Indian nationalism is an instance of territorial nationalism, which is inclusive of all of the people of India, despite their diverse ethnic, liguistic and religious background.

2.    Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

As the Mughal Empire disintegrated in the early 18th century, and then as the Maratha Empire became weakened after the third battle of Panipat, many relatively weak and unstable Indian states which emerged were increasingly open to manipulation by the Europeans, through dependent Indian rulers.

In the later 18th century Great Britain and France struggled for dominance, partly through proxy Indian rulers but also by direct military intervention. The defeat of the formidable Indian ruler Tipu Sultan in 1799 marginalised the French influence. This was followed by a rapid expansion of British power through the greater part of the Indian subcontinent in the early 19th century. By the middle of the century the British had already gained direct or indirect control over almost all of India. British India, consisting of the directly-ruled British presidencies and provinces, contained the most populous and valuable parts of the British Empire and thus became known as "the jewel in the British crown".

3.    In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

Based on the video, it sums up the idea of imperialism that these European or western countries won victories by colonizing, conquest and occupying these Asian countries that cause lots of major changes and effects through economic and political views. 

Also, Imperialism caused European countries to start competing with each other for more resources and for better economic standing. Nationalism and militarism caused countries to grow more and opposed to each other.

    British education system has produced a lot of people who can read and write in English in particular, they have constructed a railroad system to bring all the crops from the center of India to the coast, so that they can send it back to Britain, and it starts when Indians become very nationalistic they think that they can develop these things in themselves. Indians start to speak out and become more vocal to get their independence. In 1858 some Indian leaders came together and rebelled against the British east Indian Company. This is known as the Indian rebellion of 1858 or sepoy mutiny. 

2. Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

    They used to present Indian kings with costly gifts. In certain instances, the British also offered financial assistance to Indian kings to win the Indian kings' favors. The East India company won the favor of the King of the Vijayanagara empire by pursuing this cunning strategy. Some of the Mughal empire's last sultans were frail and did not do any good for India. They just enjoyed their sultan 's status and were delighted with the costly gifts offered by these strangers. The company only had permission to have security guards to secure their trade at the beginning of East India. But they need to maintain a fully trained army consisting of artillery, cavalry, and infantry regiments in the mid-18th century East India company and other foreign powers persuaded Indian kings that their business and trade must be secured for that. Then East India began a game of supremacy and control. Their troops have been stationed in Bengal, Madras, and Mumbai. By 1844, the combined strength of the armies of the East India firm was around 2.5 lakhs.

3. In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

     The triumph behind the western imperialism was due to their advancement in technology and especially in military forces. Also, by their expertness in industrial production. To defeat Asian countries, they use their money, power and advance weapons, equipment and the weakness of each countries. In addition, by creating an alliance that makes them more powerful with the aid of other powerful countries, they won in conquering Asia.

1.    How India maintain their sense of Nationalism despite of the presence of the European in their Nation?

They still try to fight back and come along together to make a revolt against the Britain power in their country. And I think that’s the nationalism they had ever made and felt even though there is a presence of European in their nation. 

2.    Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

The plan of Great Britain in conquering India is cunning and manipulative. They showed interest at first by letting Indian people believe that they are nice and all but the truth is they are suffocation in their lives. They tend to analyze things in where they can affect the invasion and the expansion of their power without Indian thinking that they are enemies. They offered gives and help to them by clouding their minds of what they are planting behind their friendly gestures. 

3.    In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

 

The triumph of Imperialism in conquering Asia is a proof of how a powerful countries affect the country who isn’t industrialized yet. They tend to sell everything in a very pricey price and when a country try to make a rebellion against it they will fight first using their well arm countrymen and kill those rebels who wanted freedom against their hidden invasion. They will try to make a step about their advantages and see it slowly unfolding, like how they made it in china selling drugs that causes conflict in their government. And in India where they take away almost everything in them from financial to human basic rights.

1.How India maintain their sense of Nationalism despite of the presence of the European in their Nation?

A: By giving what the British wants, war. They did not just participate in wars, but also started wars to take back British-occupied areas in India. Some are as follows: The Anglo-Mhugal War, The Three Anglo-Maratha Wars,  The Three Anglo-Mysore Wars, and The Two Anglo-Sikh Wars, all of which are fought for the purpose of one empire trying to conquer another. Indians did not back down from any fight during this period of time. This makes their sense of Nationalism very evident as they did not just fight in wars to defend their territory, but did so to try to take back what is rightfully theirs, their freedom from wester conquerors.

2. Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

A: The British conquest of India was the invasion and destruction of a high civilization by a trading company [the British East India Company] utterly without scruple or principle, careless of art and greedy of gain, over-running with fire and sword a country temporarily disordered and helpless, bribing and murdering, annexing and stealing, and beginning that career of illegal and ‘legal’ plunder which has now gone on ruthlessly for one hundred and seventy-three years (Durant, 1930). Indians were deprived of education during the British conquest. Their textile industry was shut down when British troops allegedly cut the thumbs of textile makers, as Shashi Tharoor suggests. Crippling a country’s economy can lead to crippling the country itself. Then in true Western Colonizing fashion, the Brits began to exploit India once they had full grasp upon it.

3. In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

A: The European Imperialism succeeded in Asia only because of them taking it by force. They waged wars in India, bombed China’s trading posts, forced cheap labor, got raw materials from Asian countries then manufacturing them in Europe, only to be sold back in Asia at a higher price. Their ideology of “Christianizing the whole world was our burden” was nothing but a lie in order to make thing easier in influencing the countries they are trying to occupy. Nationalism can do a lot but it can only do so much. It is not enough to fend off Western Imperialists who have more advanced weaponry and technology. It is them who wanted something from our continent by that time, but rather the opposite.

2.       Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.
     - In the 1600's East Indian emperor Mughal Jahangir established a company that opens their interaction with other countries specifically with European. And since they have noticed how successful India before, they used expensive gifts for the kings of India to get their trusts. They also provide support for the Indian kings, luckily it was a successful strategy for the the British empire.  They managed to conquer the Indian empire by dominating three coastal such as Surat, Mumbai, and Kolkota. But unfortunately, the Indian leaders themselves was the first point of contact why they British colonialization was successful. The British colony was successful by taking advantage of the Indian  company when they take over the ruling of the company, 

3.       In the video Triumph of Imperialism was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia:  Can you please explain it according to your own view  of understanding the video presentation

        The Europeans advantage is their power and forces. They are managed to conquer the most of the Asian countries by forcing them to be under by their power. Also, their interest in the Asian resources makes them more eager to conquer Asia. Also, even before their technology is one of their advantage from winning every wars they have been through. They wanted to rule over the Asian countries for them to be more powerful. 
     To sum up everything, imperialist country only wanted to become powerful and well known for them to get an easy access to whatever things they want. 

2. The strategies that great Britain do when Indian are fighting by each other, seems this as advantages to conquer India. Since India have different types of cultures, beliefs and practices. Their are chances that the practices that they know was different by other Indian. But before this, Britain shows kindness, entering political support, military tactics and offers different kinds of help. They are  also exchanging trades to think that Britain is just want to consume their products and have an healthy communication. Those kings of India gave expensive gifts to get their side and trust to achieve their plan to conquering India. Because of economic expansion, power, land and money they want to rule over India and become slaves of their country.

3.  Asia have a lot of resources, spices and agricultural land, the eagerness of Western to conquer those Asian country was strong. They want to sustain their raw materials for the manufacturing of goods and they use the economic ideology of racism to eliminate the lower race. They also use the advancement of their military forces and strong economic motives to extend their nation, power and land. Since they have alliance that help them to conquer Asia the power that they have has doubled than we thought. 

- as we all know that, the British and other European countries are very powerful. they are using their authorities and power to control and conquer Asia. also in the military, the British have more developed and improved equipment for the military and war. they are using it to win in conquering Asia. many countries in Asia don't have any developed equipment for the military, so it is resulted in losing in fighting back the British. 

ASIAN STUDIES ASSIGNMENT UNIT 4

1.       HOW INDIA MAINTAIN THEIR SENSE OF NATIONAKLISM DESPITE OF THE PRESENCE OF THE EUROPEAN IN THEIR NATION?

India maintains their sense of nationalism by means of working class only and low pays; farming jobs only/no factories, and they tend the resentment of British culture/rule. They show the fidelity and high means on their belief which unites them over European country beeven that Indian kingdoms are divided during that period. 

 

2.       EXPLAIN BRIEFLY THE STRATEGY OF THE EUROPEAN (GREAT BRITAIN) WIT THEIR PLAN OF CONQUERING INDIA 

Great Britain (British) plans to control India by means of using Sepoys ( native Hindu Indian police/soldier) and keep their population in line because India is the “Crown Jewel” of British Empire with known as most productive colony. After all, British offered and agreement and assistance to those Indian ruler but most rulers are vulnerable to do good things for their nation, they are being deceived by what European offered to them and it is a great chance for British to conquer India. 

 

3.       IN THE VIDEO TRIUMPH OF IMPERIALISM IT WAS DISCUSS HOW IMPERIALIST COUNTRY WON IN CONQUERING ASIA (EXPLAIN-OWN VIEW OF UNDERSTANDING)

Imperialist country obtain the victory over Asia due to their educated and well trained soldiers, vitality of weapons, and excellence in making plans that has eminent percentage to win over Asian countries. Aside of obtaining victory, Imperialist country may achieve a lots of different benefits such as the supremacy of land area, natural resources, and leading bigger geographical area. 

The Indian people maintain their sense of Nationalism because of their desire to protect their country and to be free again against the oppressive and abusive European, even if one Indian kingdom fails to bring back their territories another one will rise, stand up and fight again even though it means an hopeless and endless war and that’s how they managed to preserved their beliefs and culture despite of the European ruling them.

2. Explain briefly the strategy of the European (Great Britain) with their plan of conquering India.

The strategy plan of the European in conquering India is first they started in getting the trust of the Indian Kings by giving them expensive gifts and after getting their trust they start to build their small army in different places in their coastal areas and just expand it by convincing the Indian Kings that their businesses and traid need to be protected, since the former Kings of Indians is greedy, weak and doesn’t have any care for their country and only enjoy and care for their tittle and the present that they received from the foreigners. Many war broke out and little by little the British won all that war using their cunning  and clever strategies and successfully conquer India.

3. In the video Triumph of Imperialism it was discuss how Imperialist country won in conquering Asia: Can you please explain it according to your own view of understanding?

In my own understanding the imperialist country successfully conquered the Asia because of their advancement in technology, man power & cunning and aggressive strategy. The British or Europeans had the most advance equipment At that time plus they used their knowledge and skill to construct a cunning strategy that they used as their advantage to win all the war and conquer every part of Asia and to maintain their power they oppressed the people that they rule and forbids them to have a proper and quality education so they can’t fight back.
