Brief History Of Nagaland Conflict

On April 9, 1946, Muslim League's Central and Provincial Legislators had requested through a determination that the six territories of Bengal and Assam in upper east and Punjab, N.W.F.P, Sindh and Baluchistan in the northwest be constituted into a sovereign and the autonomous condition of

Disputes over land seem to be a catalyst for almost every hostility and war since the dawn of time. The addition of politics and religion into the matter only serves to aggravate an already tense situation. Kashmir knows this all too well. The conflict between Hindus and Muslims seems to be an ever reoccurring battle. This is also evidenced in population battles. Hindus make up the social majority of the population of India by almost eighty percent. Feelings of tension and uneasiness are a natural reaction to being dominated by a majority and are a problem unto itself.

The general cause of the Indian Independence Movement was India’s desire for independence from British, French and Portuguese Rule. The aim of the movement was “Swaraj, a self-governing India” (Sharma, 2005, p. 22). One, more specific, cause of the Indian Independence Movement took place in 1905 when the province of Bengal was divided into two provinces,

The Tuscarora War was a fought between colonists, settlers and various local tribes in the area of North Carolina in the start of 1711 and last through 1715. King Hancock led the Tuscarora tribe of local Indians in the south region of North Carolina. The Tuscarora War started due to many different disputes, some being; land invasion by the colonists, trade disputes and the actions of some settlers in enslaving or killing off the Tuscarora Indians along with diseases quickly spreading.

The event which impacted the ending wars between the United States Army and the Indian nations was the passing of the Dawes Act. One of the top arguments facing the government was the concept that many reformers inferred about the dream of conforming the Indians into a piece of our countries’ white culture. The Dawes Act divided reservations into sections consisting of 160 acres per family to live in; therefore, the remainder of the land would be given to the surrounding white settlements. Although the Dawes Act seemed like a great benefit for the Indians, in many instances this was not true. The Indians’ lives were greatly affected by this act; the natives as the original land owners for generations

The author’s intent for creating this document was to talk and explain in detail what occurred after the French and Indian War and how it was solved using the Treaty of Paris of 1763. He wrote in detail what were the different agreements the British, France and Spain had to under go in order to make the treaty work for the three parties involved. This document is a breakdown of historical context, which includes the principal circumstance of the time, dates and place in which the event occurred. The author furthermost linked the document from previous eras and older periods to former events that might have happened in different parts of the world. The author’s intended audiences were to students who need a source for writing a paper or just

The Snake war was arguably one of the most devastating Native American wars in the west, moreover Native Americans were trespassing into settlers land and settlers trespassing into Native American land caused this conflict. And in it multiple states were involved, multiple tribes and a multitude of people!

When the British settlers arrived on the Powhatan territory, the Indians did not see them as a threat, it was a mutual relationship. When the Powhatan realised that the British’s intention was to own the land, conflict aroused as the Indians do not believe in man owning land. The British suffered an Indian attack in 1607, two weeks after the British arrival, but the Indians were fought off with weapons such as muskets and cannons. This was the start of the Powhatan wars.

Many people believe that in the 1940’s most of India’s problems involving independence was to do with divisions within India rather than British imperialism. In this essay I will be looking at both points of view and finally giving my opinion. I will be using three sources also to help me show both sides of the story. I will also be using my further knowledge to add a wider range of knowledge.

According to the Census Bureau in 1894 there were over 40 declared Indian Wars, which killed approximately 20,000 whites and about 36,000 Indians however it did note that the number of Indians killed was likely higher than the count. The first Indian War documented began on March 22, 1622 and was known as the “Jamestown Massacre” in which the Powhatan Indians kill 347 Colonists throughout the Virginia colony during the first Powhatan War. It was the first war between Europeans and Native Americans in the American West. With over a 268 year span of time, the end of the Indian Wars was on December 29, 1890 and known as the “Wounded Knee Massacre”. Sitting Bull's half-brother, Big Foot, and over 200 Sioux were killed by the U.S. 7th Cavalry.

Powhatan argued that conflict between the colonists and Indians should stop. He believed that the two sides should create peace and become allies instead of enemies. Warehouse's argument was almost the exact opposite. Water house believed that the Indians are savage barbarians and that conquering them would be easier. He wanted to get revenge on the Indian people for attacking the colonists, and no longer wanted peace with them.

The Partition of India in August, 1947 was a significant event in history that accounted for the separation of one of the world’s oldest civilization into two, independent nations – Pakistan and India. Like many other wars in history, The Partition of India was instigated by religious, political and social conflict. This resulted in violence, discrimination and the largest human displacement in contemporary history. While the Partition was well-studied, much of our understanding was focused on the political side of history, not the human side of it. This was why oral history played an important role in manifesting the complexity of a historical event. Our focus here is Maya Rani’s testimony from Butalia’s book, The Other Side of Silence:

India thinks that Kashmir is not the issue for an international concern and India does not consider UN’s take on any political action over Kashmir. India’s apprehension of Kashmir is reasonable somehow because India has fought three times with Pakistan regarding Kashmir’s issue. On the contrary, resolution does not come through military action. According to India, if India is ready to establish Kashmir as a democratic province with all the privileges of an autonomous, there is no guarantee to Kashmir will be under the Indian union. Because there are lots of terrorist groups are fighting against India. Pakistan is supporting them by providing materials as well as financial backing (Schofield, V. 2000).
