Following World War I, anti-British sentiment began to grow in the colonies. Desire for self-rule and the frustration of having served a country while incurring massive casualties without thanks led colonies to rally for independence.

The Indian Independence Act of 1947 granted one of Britain's largest territories its sovereignty. In doing so, the plan also required the division of Pakistan and India based on religious customs. Violence came as a result of the division and the disagreement over boundaries. The Act also stripped the British of the title "Emperor of India."

The Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) led to the emergence of Japan as an imperial power. But, it was Japan’s victory over Russia in the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) that announced to the world Japan’s status as a growing imperial power. For one thing it was the first time an Asian military had defeated a European power in war since the age of European colonialism had begun a few centuries earlier.

The correct answer is that current national boundaries of countries on the African continent are largely the same as they were during the colonial era. A few boundaries have been redrawn when long secessionist conflicts were resolved with independent statehood (notably in South Sudan and Eritrea). Despite the collapse of some governments, as in Somalia, the officially recognized national boundaries have not changed a great deal since the colonial era.

The correct answer is "none of these answers." The combination of changing political and economic conditions in European colonial powers, the increasing social and political resistance to colonialism in Africa, and a growing ideological distaste for colonial projects in the aftermath of World War II led to a wave of decolonization by the late 1950s and 1960s.

Ethiopia and Liberia remained independent despite European attempts to take control over them. This was in large part to the difficult terrain of the Ethiopian highlands, and the American protection of Liberia.

Britain forced people in their colonies to adapt to British Culture in every way. They were told to live like British, talk like British, eat like British, dress like British, etc. The Europeans in general felt that their way was superior to the way of the Africans, and therefore the Africans should act like Europeans.

The Labor Party of the United Kingdom rose to prominence in the 1910s and 1920s and has served ever since as the main opposition to the Conservative Party in British politics. The Labor Party formed its first majority government under Clement Attlee in 1946, in the immediate aftermath of World War Two. The Labor Party advanced issues like social welfare and support for the independence of overseas colonies, as well as home rule among the British population.
