comment Why did Britain and France not declare war against the Soviet Union when it invaded Poland in WW2?
@HermannIngjaldsson I was referring to the USSR's non-aggression pact with Germany signed in August 1945. I think I will clarify the reply suitably. As for the role of minorities, many people believed at that time believed that minorities in the USSR were well-treated (indeed, after its creation, the USSR claimed to support languages other than Russian, something that the Tsar had never permitted).

comment What was the first successful non violent independence movement?
Honestly, it is not a known fact that Mahatma Gandhi's non-violent movement caused India's independence. Many historians (especially in India) continue to believe that it was the activities of the Indian National Army and the navy mutiny that caused India's independence.

comment What is the reason for Burma/Myanmar's recent reforms?
What I meant was that with the foreign media not being allowed to investigate, it is difficult to analyze the actual situation on the ground and understand why these changes have occurred. Unless some study by neutral observers is done, it is difficult to predict the actual reasons.

Since Myanmar does not allow free media, it might not be possible to give a balanced answer as of now.

comment What were the main causes of successful take over of India by Britain?
It would be wrong to say that Mughal rule was resented in India. The Mughals were instead widely respected. The Mughal dynasty, since Akbar's rule, successfully integrated the Hindus into India's administration and earned respect throughout the country. Even Aurangzeb's bigoted policies could not entirely reverse this. For this reason alone, most of India's independent kings accepted nominal suzerainty of the Mughal emperor. Evidence can be seen in the rebellion of 1857, where the rebel sepoys immediately after rebelling sought the Mughal emperor's support.
