Factors which were responsible for the agiriama resistance to british rule

Oppression and exploitation of the people were the main reasons for the rebellion and resistance to British rule in India. Being evicted from their lands, peasants and tribals became laborers on theirvown lands. A different form of taxes made their life miserable.

Because of the Dawes Act, Native Americans lost half of the land they owned. In 1881, Native American land ownership was 150 million acres. In fact, by 1900, that had depleted to 78 million acres. Their lands continued to diminish and by the 1930s Native American ownership was around 50 million acres.
