Sun Yat-Sen and Mohandas Gandhi: Men of Nationalism

Between Sun Yat-Sen and Gandhi, Gandhi was the man to reflective his culture. Yes, Sun Yat-Sen was one of China's most important leaders during the Qing dynasty, but he was eventually overthrown by a dictator. Monhandas Gandhi once said, "An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind." He clearly had ideas of peace, and used non-violent protests to create a movement against Britain to have India as a free nation. All Sun Yat-Sen did was create a decent revolution, then screw over the United States government by having a Hawaii birth certificate to gain access to the Untied States. Gandhi, on the other hand, did only peaceful things to settle issues with the British over-powering government.
