Question
State your opinion.
Deportation began in the twentieth century.
Solution
In the first half of the twentieth-century decolonisation did not take very long, in many of the Asian and African countries. The process of decolonisation was accelerated in a short time because of the conflicts among European coloniser countries, the occurrence of the First and Second World Wars and the anti-colonial movements in the colonies. The European countries could not have reasoned out colonisation and the exploitation of colonies from the intellectual platforms. The Indian freedom movement had reached a culminating point, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. Under the situation, England had become aware of the reality of their diminishing power. This resulted in gradually introducing the system of internal autonomy in some of the colonies.
