Person That Changed the World

The person that I believe changed the world would be Mohandas Karamchand Ghandi. I think that he proved that conflict can be solved we peace. Instead of killing he did thing like going on hunger strikes. He helped India get its indpendence in 1947. That was a huge change in the world. You can see how India has grown since then. He made a big change in the world. Some people relized that conflicts can be handled with peace.
Not only did he help India gain its independence, but he also went to college in London for law. I think that was a big thing back in those days since India was under control by the british. The british even arrested him before too. He was arrested because the british found out about him trying to help India gain independece when he was in South Africa.
He even solved more problems. Hindus and Muslims started fighting. At his age of 78 he fast(hunger strike) so that the bloodshed between the two grouops would stop. 5 days later the pledge to stop and he broke his fast. But 12 days later he was killed by a Hindu fanatic. It's hard to believe some one kill such a peaceful.
I think Ghandi really changed the world. It obvious that the big thing he did was help India. But he also cared for the people like when they walked to the ocean to gather freash salt. He was a good person. Its really inspiring when you see there were people like him. I believe many people have taken his ways by soving problems with peace. There are people though who don't like Ghandi and the way he was.
