The numerous post-war uprisings in which nationalists
attempted to overthrow colonial rulers or oppressive regimes in the name of
national sovereignty were known as the war of “national liberation”. The oppression
of the rulers was going from bad to worse with each passing day. The people
were being denied their rights in reference to several factors. People were
also levied undue taxes which put a huge amount of pressure on them. To
overcome such difficult circumstances people of many countries started
revolting against the colonists.
