Did Canada have autonomy at the start of World War 1?
Depending on how one defines "autonomy" the answer will vary. With respect to political autonomy, in 1867, Canada was styled a separate "dominion" with authority to establish its own representative government. In 1931, Canada was given power to pass and amend its own laws without final approval of the British Parliament, except for those laws which were "Constitutional" in character. In 1982, Canada was given power to amend its own Constitution, thus divesting Britain of any remaining legislative authority over Canada.
What caused the lower Canada rebellion?
The Lower Canada rebellion was connected to two main themes: 1) the subordination of French Canada and its institutions to the ruling British regime; 2) the resurgence of French Canadian nationalism. French Canadians had secured control of the Lower Canada assembly, led by the emerging middle class, but encountered resistance to attempts to assert regional autonomy from the colonial British authorities. During the 1830s, economic recession and mass immigration caused severe suffering in Lower Canada and threatened their cultural majorities in Montreal and Quebec City. In response to these problems, the Patriotes, an organised French Canadian party, pushed for major reforms. They cut funding to local governments and civil service, preventing provision of public goods. The British government responded by asserting their control and pushing through the Russell Reforms, rejecting demands for autonomy by French Canada, and leading to the rebellion itself in 1837.
Why did the UN's plan of splitting Palestine in 1940's fail?
Today we see the effects the the British and UN policy towards Palestine. Instead of having their own government and lands they are still fighting for autonomy from Israel. Both have claimed land especially in the Gaza Strip and Goland Heights. The 1940 policy was misspent and not logical. People can't stay nation less for over 60 years and feel good about it.
How did Canada attain its national identity and What are some major events and individuals that defined Canada as a nation?
One event that defined Canada as a nation was its decisive victory in WWI at Vimy Ridge. Canada entered the war automatically because they were considered still a colony. Vimy Ridge was a heavily fortified German bastion that the French and the British could not take. After the Canadians won the battle, they had a reputation of having strong and battle hardened soldiers. This eventually led to its autonomy as a nation, free from British influence.
What is dual monarchy?
The term dual monarchy is generally used only to describe Austria-Hungary between 1867 and 1918. Following its defeat at the hands of Prussia in 1866 and its subsequent exclusion from Germany, the government of the Austrian Empire did a deal with its most powerful and potentially 'troublesome' minority, the Hungarians. Under the terms of the Ausgleich (compromise) of 1867 the territory of the Kingdom of Hungary was given full autonomy in most areas of government. (The details of this compromise are complicated). Technically, the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Hungary were made virtually equal in status, with defence, foreign policy, customs duties and the currency and postal service under joint control. Austria-Hungary adopted the official title of Kaiserliche und koenigliche Monarchie Oesterreich-Ungarn - Imperial and royal Monarchy of Austria-Hungary. This empire remained in existence till 1918, when it fell apart towards the end of World War 1.
