Describe how decolonization occurred in india
World War II was fatal to the European colonial empires. European states’ populations were too devastated to consider fighting to keep Asia and Africa subjugated. Both the United States and the Soviet Union were hostile to continuation of European colonies. A reluctant Britain, in return for American support, in 1941 agreed to the Atlantic Charter, a pact recognizing the right of people to choose their own government.
The Indian National Congress agreed to support the British war effort in return for a significant share of power in India and a postwar commitment to independence. The British rejected the offer. Negotiations failed to lessen increasing tensions. Mass civil disobedience campaigns, such as the Quit India movement, began during 1942. Gandhi and other leaders were imprisoned. The Muslim League, led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah, gained favor by supporting the British. The war caused hardship in India through inflation and famine. When a Labour government came to power in Britain in 1945, independence in the near future was conceded. The divided Indians were unable to work out a compromise between Hindu desires for one nation under majority rule and Muslim wishes for a separate state. When communal rioting spread, the British agreed to the creation of two independent nations, India and Pakistan, in 1947.

Describe the process of scientific inquiry
Research Paper “Progression of Art and Architecture, Renaissance Influences on Western Culture”
The term Renaissance means “rebirth” and so that historical timeframe of roughly 1370-1600 AD that we generally apply to the Renaissance Era signifies a rebirth of culture and civilization in the wake of the Dark Ages or Middle Ages. In the wake of the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD Europe had experienced nearly a thousand years of discord and disruption as small states sought to fill the void left behind in the wake of the Pax Romana. With this discord in the Dark Ages came a struggle to survive for many Europeans that left cultural pursuits such as art, architecture, literature and science wanting.
With the onset of the Renaissance, Western Europe specifically and Western Civilization subsequently would undergo a revival of classical Roman and Greek ideas particularly with respect to science, art, literature and architecture. Even religion would be impacted at the later stages of the Renaissance when Martin Luther instigated the Protestant Reformation. However the revival of art, science, architecture and literature all owe a debt to both Christendom and Islam. Many classical Roman and Greek manuscripts had been spared the ravages of the Dark Ages and saved through the efforts of Christian monks and Islamic scholars in their respective libraries.
From these unlikely beginnings, the Renaissance germinated and continues to influence us today.
For this first assignment I want you to consider the readings from your text and the links I’ve provided below as well as any research you may conduct on your own. Then I want you to put together a paper, between 2000 and 2200 words. In it I want you answer the following questions:
