Before the advent of the British, the people of the south were usually separate from the rest of India except for some short inter­vals. The British imperialism made the people to think as one nation.

The nineteenth century in Europe was the century of nationalism and liberalism. The Indians came to learn their lessons from the Europeans on both these ideologies.
