Reasons For Peaceful Independence of States in Africa

In modern history, the reasons for peaceful independence of states in  are many. Some states were able to obtain independence through peaceful means, while others were forced to use violence. There are also non-African factors that contributed to the timing of state independence. For example, in the case of Serbia, it is unlikely that a violent revolution could have led to their independence. But if the event were to occur in another part of the world, it would be interesting to consider why the state of Serbia was able to peacefully gain independence.

Before the war, the Patriots had adopted a bill of civil rights in response to oppression. In North Carolina, the Tar Heels had a profound distrust for government and thought that personal freedoms needed to be stated in writing. They also believed that each branch of government should have its own independence. In addition, the constitutions of these two states had the same effect. Ultimately, this conflict would lead to the American Revolution.

In the Second World War, the Communist Party took advantage of Japanese occupation and started the Viet Minh Independence Movement. The British were unable to create a federation in Indochina in 1946, and a war followed. Similarly, Italy's African colonies gained independence after the Second World War. Likewise, the British started decolonization after the war and some African countries gained independence peacefully. Others experienced armed struggle and opposition from British colonial settlers.

Answer and Explanation:

There are several reasons why some states were able to peacefully gain independence as opposed to resorting to armed revolt. One reason is that the colonial powers may have lacked the resources or political will to suppress independence movements. For example, after World War II, many European countries were weakened and lacked the wealth and political support necessary to suppress revolts in their colonie. In such cases, the colonial powers may have been more willing to negotiate and grant independence peacefully.

Another reason why some states were able to gain independence peacefully is that they may have had strong and effective leaders who were able to negotiate with the colonial powers and achieve independence through diplomatic means. For example, in India, leaders such as Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru were able to negotiate with the British and achieve independence for India without resorting to armed revolt.

In summary, there are several reasons why some states were able to peacefully gain independence as opposed to resorting to armed revolt. These reasons may include a lack of resources or political will on the part of the colonial powers, or effective leadership and diplomacy on the part of the independence movements.

"A Valentine"
by Edgar Allan Poe

For her this rhyme is penned whose luminous eyes,
Brightly expressive as the twins of Leda,
Shall find her own sweet name, that nestling lies
Upon the page, enwrapped from every reader.
Search narrowly the lines!—they hold a treasure
Divine—a talisman—an amulet
That must be worn at heart. Search well the measure—
The words—the syllables! Do not forget
The trivialest point, or you may lose your labor
And yet there is in this no Gordian knot
Which one might not undo without a sabre,
If one could merely comprehend the plot.
Enwritten upon the leaf where now are peering
Eyes scintillating soul, there lie perdus
Three eloquent words oft uttered in the hearing
Of poets, by poets—as the name is a poet's, too,
Its letters, although naturally lying
Like the knight Pinto—Mendez Ferdinando—
Still form a synonym for Truth—Cease trying!
You will not read the riddle, though you do the best you can do.

Read this excerpt from “Herd about the Flu .”

We can’t easily predict what people will do. Some people oppose taking any vaccine. Others don’t get around to it. Finally, some people may not take it because they know it doesn’t always work. Unlike vaccines against measles, polio, or smallpox, today’s flu shot doesn’t give full immunity, or resistance, to the flu.

What is the point of a flu shot if it doesn’t work, and why doesn’t it always work? The flu is complex and strains change quickly. People need to be vaccinated with a new batch of vaccine every year. Vaccines must be produced long before the actual flu virus, or the strain of virus, starts to work its way through the community. Some years, scientists do a better job of predicting which strains will be common that year. Sometimes, even if the scientists predict the right strains, the vaccine may not create a strong immune response.

How would it help the reader if the author named the sources of this information?

The reader could say that he has read the books where this information was found.
The reader could verify the credibility of the information.
The reader could learn how to avoid getting the flu.
The reader could make his or her own flu shots.
