The yukata is a kind of kimono.
Yukata are very casual kimono, and are worn in the summer.
Normal kimono can be difficult to wear because they have many different parts.
These can include a long, stiff obi (belt), a kimono worn underneath the outer kimono, called a juban, and padding to make the shape of the kimono nicer.
Many Japanese people cannot put normal kimono on by themselves, as they are so different to everyday clothing.
However, yukata are a type of kimono that is easy to wear.
They are made of cotton, and do not have to be worn with a juban.
They are worn with thin, short obi, called hanhaba obi, which are easy to tie without someone else's help.
Yukata are worn in the summer, and are very popular to wear to festivals.
They are cheap, keep the body cool, and are easy to wash and dry, unlike regular silk kimono.
Yukata used to be decorated only with designs in blue and white colours.
However, many modern yukata have bright and colourful designs, making them fun and fashionable to wear.
Many young women wear yukata and geta (Japanese clogs) at summer festivals, fireworks displays, and Bon festival dances.
Recently, yukata have been adopted as summer uniforms in some of the restaurants and theme parks in Japan.
The sumo wrestler wears a yukata in his daily life, every single day.
In addition, a type of yukata called nemaki are used as night clothes for guests at many Japanese hotels and inns.
Unlike yukata, and regular kimono, nemaki are not made differently for men and women.
Tonkatsu (,  or ) is a Japanese dish of fried pork meat.
Either pork fillet or pork loin, is sliced.
It is then coated in flour, dipped into beaten eggs,  and rolled in breadcrumbs.
It is then fried in hot oil.
People often use a Japanese Worcester sauce, but some use a vinegar-soy-sauce called ponzu when they eat it.
Tonkatsu originated as a cutlet, but it is also used as a sandwich filling or in combination with curry.
Tonkatsu originated in Japan in the 19th century.
Now it is known as a Japanese food by most of the world.
It is usually prepared for special occasions, for example a wedding.
It is always served with a type of alcoholic drink.
The Wilderness Road was a trail made by Daniel Boone in 1769 through the Appalachian Mountains and through Kentucky.
This road was used for more than 50 years for settlers to travel from the East into Kentucky.
The Iroquois (), also known as the Haudenosaunee or the "People of the Longhouse", are a group of tribes of indigenous people of North America.
After the people who spoke Iroquoian came together as different tribes, which were mostly in what is now central and upstate New York, in the 16th century or earlier they came together in an group known today as the Iroquois League, or the "League of Peace and Power".
The first Iroquois League was often known as the Five Nations, as it was made up of the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga and Seneca.
After the Tuscarora nation joined the League in 1722, the Iroquois became known as the Six Nations.
To this day, fifty sachems who represent different clans of the Iroquois meet at the Grand Council near Syracuse, New York.
When Europeans first arrived in North America, the Iroquois lived in what is now the northeastern United States, mostly in what is today upstate New York, west of the Hudson River and through the Finger Lakes region.
Today, the Iroquois live mostly in New York and Canada.
The Iroquois League has also been called the Iroquois Confederacy.
Some modern scholars now think the League and the Confederacy are different.
According to this belief, the term "Iroquois League" stands for the ceremonies and culture found in the Grand Council, while the term "Iroquois Confederacy" stands for what was the spread out political and diplomatic group that was made after Europeans began colonizing America.
The League still exists.
The Confederacy broke up after the defeat of the British and allied Iroquois nations in the American Revolutionary War.
The Iroquois call themselves the "Haudenosaunee", which means "People of the Longhouse," or more accurately, "They Are Building a Long House."
They believe that the Great Peacemaker came up with the name when the League was formed.
It means that the nations of the League should live together as families in the same longhouse.
Symbolically, the Mohawk guarded the eastern door, as they lived in the east closest to the Hudson River.
The Seneca guarded the western door of the "tribal longhouse", the land they controlled in New York.
The Onondaga, who lived in the center of Haudenosaunee territory, were keepers of the League's (both literal and figurative) central flame.
The French colonists called the Haudenosaunee by the name of Iroquois.
There are several different places this name might have come from:
French transliteration of irinakhoiw, a Huron (Wyandot) name for the Haudenosaunee.
Used in a negative way, it meant "black snakes" or "real adders".
The Haudenosaunee and Huron were traditional enemies, as the Huron were allied with the French and tried to protect their access to fur traders.
French linguists, such as Henriette Walter, and anthropologists, such as Dean Snow, support the following explanation.
Before France colonized the Americas, Basque fishermen traded with the Algonquins, who were enemies of the Haudenosaunee.
The above scholars think "Iroquois" came from a Basque expression, hilokoa, meaning the "killer people", which changed because of different ways that Algonquins and French pronounced words.
Formation of the League
Members of the League speak Iroquoian languages that are very different from those of other Iroquoian speakers.
This suggests that while the different Iroquoian tribes had the same historical and cultural origin, they came apart over a long enough time that their languages became different.
Evidence from archaeology shows that Iroquois ancestors lived in the Finger Lakes region from at least 1000 AD.
After coming together in the League, the Iroquois invaded the Ohio River Valley in present-day Kentucky to find more hunting grounds.
The Iroquois League was made before they first met European people.
Most archaeologists and anthropologists think that the League was made sometime between about 1450 and 1600, although some people think it was even earlier.
According to tradition, the League was formed through the efforts of two men, Deganawida, sometimes known as the Great Peacemaker, and Hiawatha.
They brought a message, called the Great Law of Peace, to the fighting Iroquoian nations.
The nations who joined the League were the Seneca, Onondaga, Oneida, Cayuga and Mohawk.
Once they stopped most of their fighting, the Iroquois fast became one of the strongest forces in 17th- and 18th-century northeastern North America.
According to legend, an evil Onondaga chieftain named Tadodaho was the last to be converted to the ways of peace by The Great Peacemaker and Hiawatha.
He became the spiritual leader of the Haudenosaunee.
This is said to have occurred at Onondaga Lake near Syracuse, New York.
The title Tadodaho is still used for the league's spiritual leader, the fiftieth chief, who sits with the Onondaga in council.
He is the only one of the fifty to have been chosen by the entire Haudenosaunee people.
The current Tadodaho is Sid Hill of the Onondaga Nation.
Beaver Wars
In the 1600s, the Iroquois fought with other tribes for hunting land.
This is called the Beaver Wars.
French and Indian Wars
During the French and Indian War (the North American part of the Seven Years' War), the Iroquois took the side of the British against the French and their Algonquian allies, both of whom had been enemies of the Iroquois in the past.
The Iroquois hoped that helping the British would also bring favors after the war.
In actuality, few Iroquois joined the campaign, and in the Battle of Lake George, a group of Mohawk and French ambushed a Mohawk-led British column.
The British government made the Royal Proclamation of 1763 after the war, which said that white people could not live past the Appalachian Mountains, but this proclamation was largely ignored by the settlers, and the Iroquois agreed to move this line again at the Treaty of Fort Stanwix in 1768, where they sold the British all their remaining claim to the lands between the Ohio and Tennessee Rivers.
During the American Revolution, many Tuscarora and the Oneida took the side of the colonists, while the Mohawk, Seneca, Onondaga and Cayuga remained loyal to Great Britain.
This was the first major split among the Six Nations.
Joseph Louis Cook offered his services to the United States and received a Congressional commission as a Lieutenant Colonel- the highest rank held by any Native American during the war.
However, after a series of successful operations against frontier settlements – led by the Mohawk war chief Joseph Brant, other war chiefs, and British allies – the future United States wanted revenge.
In 1779, George Washington ordered the Sullivan Campaign led by Col.
Daniel Brodhead and General John Sullivan against the Iroquois nations to "not merely overrun, but destroy," the British-Indian alliance.
After the American Revolution
After the war, the ancient central fireplace of the League was made again at Buffalo Creek.
Colonel Joseph Brant and a group of Iroquois left New York to settle in Canada.
As a reward for their loyalty to the British Crown, they were given a large land grant, now called Brantford, Ontario on the Grand River.
Traditionally, the Iroquois were a mix of farmers, fishers, gatherers and hunters, although most of their food came from farming.
The main crops they farmed were corn, beans and squash, which were called the three sisters and were considered special gifts from the Creator.
These crops are grown strategically.
The food was stored during the winter, and it lasted for two to three years.
When the soil eventually became less fertile, the Iroquois moved.
Gathering was the job of the women and children.
Wild roots, greens, berries and nuts were gathered in the summer.
During spring, maple syrup was tapped from the trees, and herbs were gathered for medicine.
The Iroquois hunted mostly deer but also other game such as wild turkey and migratory birds.
Muskrat and beaver were hunted during the winter.
Fishing was also a big source of food because the Iroquois lived near a large river (St. Lawerence River).
They fished salmon, trout, bass, perch and whitefish.
In the spring the Iroquois netted, and in the winter fishing holes were made in the ice.
When Americans and Canadians of European descent began to study Iroquois customs in the 18th and 19th centuries, they found that women assumed a position in Iroquois society that was about equal in power to that of the men.
Women could own property including homes, horses and farmed land, and when they married, they could keep their property without it being given to their husbands.
A woman could keep the money she earned for herself.
A husband lived in the longhouse of his wife's family.
A woman choosing to divorce a husband who was not being a good husband was able to ask him to leave the dwelling, taking any of his possessions with him.
Women had responsibility for the children of the marriage, and children were educated by members of the mother's family.
The clans were matrilineal, which means that clan ties were traced through the mother's line.
If a couple broke up, the woman kept the children.
The chief of a clan could be removed at any time by a council of the mothers of that clan.
The chief's sister was responsible for nominating the next chief.
Spiritual beliefs
Important festivals were at the same time as the major events of the agricultural calendar, including a harvest festival of thanksgiving.
The Great Peacemaker (Deganawida) was their prophet.
After the Europeans arrived, many Iroquois became Christians, among them Kateri Tekakwitha, a young woman of Mohawk-Algonkin parents.
Traditional Iroquois religious beliefs became somewhat more popular again in the second half of the 18th century by the teachings of the Iroquois prophet Handsome Lake.

It is difficult to figure out exactly how many Iroquois there are today.
About 45,000 Iroquois lived in Canada in 1995.
In the 2000 census, 80,822 people in the United States said they were Iroquois, with 45,217 of them claiming only an Iroquois background.
There were about 30,000 tribal registrations among the Six Nations in the United States in 1995.
Grand Council
The Grand Council of the Iroquois League is an assembly of 56 Hoyenah (chiefs) or Sachems, a number that has never changed.
Today, the seats on the Council are distributed among the Six Nations as follows:
14 Onondaga
10 Cayuga
9 Oneida
9 Mohawk
8 Seneca
6 Tuscarora
When anthropologist Lewis Henry Morgan studied the Grand Council in the 19th century, he thought it was a central government.
This interpretation became influential, but some scholars have since argued that while the Grand Council served an important ceremonial role, it was not a government in the way that Morgan thought.
According to this view, Iroquois political and diplomatic decisions are made on the local level, and are based on what the local communities think.
A central government that makes policy and puts it into practice for the people at large is not how the Iroquois handle government.
Councils of the mothers of each tribe were held separately from the men's councils.
The women used men as runners to send word of their decisions, or a woman could appear at the men's council to speak, presenting the view of the women.
Women often were the ones who suggested new laws.

The Banach–Tarski paradox is a theorem in mathematics that says that any solid shape can be reassembled into any other solid shape.
It was made by mathematicians Stefan Banach and Alfred Tarski.
For example, a sphere can be split up into a limited number of parts which can then be put back together again to make two identical copies of the original sphere.
The Banach–Tarski paradox can also be used to turn a small sphere into a huge sphere.
It is important when thinking about this to realize that the parts that the solid shape is being split into are not solid shapes themselves; they are infinite sets of points spread around the solid shape.
For the Banach–Tarski paradox to work, you need to use the axiom of choice.
This is called a paradox because no stretching or bending of the parts takes place and no new material is added, yet by the end the volume can be doubled.
This goes against our geometric intuition.
However, it is mathematically possible and it turns out that in this case our intuition is not correct.

Jacques Lucien Monod (9 February 1910 in Paris - 31 May 1976 in Paris) was a French biologist.
He won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1965 for his discoveries about the genetic control of enzyme and virus synthesis which he shared with François Jacob and Andre Lwoff.
Monod's best-known work explains how llife is the product of a combination of chance and necessity.
It has been described as a "manifesto of materialist biology in the most reductivist sense", because Monod says that systems in nature can be explained without introducing any end-goal or purpose.
He then argues that certain beliefs and ethics followed from his outlook on biology: atheism, rationalism, anti-Marxism.

Jack William Szostak (London, November 9, 1952) is an Anglo-American biologist who was raised in Canada.
Szostak is Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School.
He shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2009 for the discovery of how chromosomes are protected by telomeres.
His co-winners were Elizabeth Blackburn and Carol Greider.
Szostak is also credited with the construction of the world's first yeast artificial chromosome.
His lab has moved on to working on RNA. "
By the year 2000, I started to pay more attention to fundamental questions related to the origin of life" (RNA world hypothesis). "
Here the big question is whether RNA was in fact the first genetic polymer, or whether RNA was preceded by some simpler, easier to make or more robust genetic material".
Recent work suggests that the RNA hypothessis is still alive.
The hoopoe (Upupa epops), is a colourful bird that is found across Afro-Eurasia, notable for its distinctive 'crown' of feathers.
It is the only living species in the family Upupidae.
One insular species, the giant hoopoe of Saint Helena, is recently extinct, and the Madagascar subspecies of the hoopoe is sometimes elevated to a full species.
The English name is derived from Latin upupa, which imitates the cry of the bird.
The hoopoe is classified in the Coraciiformes clade, a group that also includes kingfishers, bee-eaters, rollers, and woodhoopoes (forming a clade with this one according to Hackett et al. (
2008)).
A close relationship between the hoopoe and the woodhoopoes is also supported by the shared and unique nature of their stapes.
Nine subspecies of hoopoe are recognised by the Kristin 2001 (in the Handbook of the Birds of the World).
These subspecies vary mostly in size and the depth of colour in the plumage.
Two more subspecies have been proposed, U. e. minor in South Africa and U. e. orientalis in north western India.

Jose Bautista's MLB player profile
Members of one species do not, in general, mate with members of another species, though there are many exceptions and variations to this.
And, if such mating does take place, the offspring may not develop, or may not be fertile.
If species arise by the splitting of ancestral species, it might be asked what stops the new species continuing to reproduce together.
If they did, they would again become one species.
Pre-mating mechanisms
They do not meet those with different ecological preferences.
Behavioral isolation: Individuals of different species may meet, but choose members of their own species.
They may not recognize sexual cues given by other species.
Post-mating isolating mechanisms
Gametes not compatible.
Sperm transfer takes place, but egg is not fertilized.
Zygote mortality: The egg is fertilized, but the zygote does not develop.
Hybrid inviability: Hybrid embryo forms, but dies.
Hybrid breakdown: First generation hybrids are viable and fertile, but further hybrid generations and backcrosses are inviable or sterile.
There is still much debate as to whether the Dobzhansky/Mayr account is satisfactory.
Modern researchers tends to avoid the general term 'isolating mechanisms' in favour of the more specific terms 'mate choice', 'hybrid incompatibility' and other forms of 'reproductive isolation'.

The constellation Volans is a group of stars in the southern sky.
It is in the shape of a flying fish.
The name Volans is a shortened from of its original, Piscis Volans.
Volans was one of twelve constellations created by Petrus Plancius.
He made these constellations from observations by Pieter Dirkszoon Keyser and Frederick de Houtman.
Volans first appeared on a 35-cm diameter celestial globe published in 1597 (or 1598) in Amsterdam by Plancius with Jodocus Hondius.
The first image of this constellation in a celestial atlas was in Johann Bayer's Uranometria of 1603.

Georgy Maximilianovich Malenkov  (6 December 1901 [O.S. 23 November 1901] – 14 January 1988) was a Macedonian-Russian politician in the Soviet Union and the Premier of the Soviet Union after the death of Joseph Stalin in March, 1953 until February, 1955.
Malenkov served as the Premier (official head of government) of the country while Nikita Krushchev was the First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
He was all so involved in World War II (1939-1945) when Nazi Germany lead by Adolf Hitler betrayed the Soviet Union in the Nazi Invasion Of Russia Of 1941 .
Malenkov was all so involved in the Korean War (1950-1953) when Stalin died in March 1953 Malenkov succeeded Stalin briefly until 1955 .
He formed a team with Nikolai Bulganin, Vyacheslav Molotov, and Lazar Kaganovich, and together they tried to throw Khrushchev out of power.
Krushchev eventually won the battle for power, and in 1957 Malenkov was forced to leave his position in the Party Politburo.
In 1961, he was kicked out of the Party and forced to move to Kazakhstan.
Together with Lavrentiy Beria (1899-1953) & Krushchev (1894-1953), Malenkov began the process of destalinization, completing the process from 1953-1961 .
Lavrentiy Beria’s Death
On the 23rd December 1953 just months after Joseph Stalin (1878-1953) died on the 5th March 1953 Malenkov along with Nikita Khrushchev (1894-1971) and Georgy Zhukov (1896-1974) and other Soviet Officials executed Lavrentiy Beria (1899-1953) in late 1953 who was the NKVD chief from 1938-1946 and the MVD (Soviet Union) from 1946-1953 .
Replaced By Nikita Khrushchev in 1955
In February 1955 Georgy Malenkov was replaced by Nikita Khrushchev
Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria (29 March 1899– 23 December 1953) was the leader of the secret police of the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin's regime.
In 1953, Nikita Krushchev plotted to have Beria executed.
He administered vast sections of the Soviet state.
He served as de facto Marshal of the Soviet Union in command of the NKVD field units responsible for anti-partisan operations on the Eastern Front during World War II.
His troops also were a barrier against thousands of "turncoats, deserters, cowards and suspected malingerers".
Beria administered the vast expansion of the Gulag labor camps.
He was responsible for overseeing the secret defense institutions known as sharashkas, critical to the war effort.
Beria also played the decisive role in coordinating the Soviet partisans, who developed an impressive intelligence and sabotage network behind German lines.
He attended the Yalta Conference with Stalin, who introduced him to U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt as "our Himmler".
After the war, he organized the communist takeover of the countries of Central Europe and Eastern Europe.
Beria's uncompromising ruthlessness in his duties and skill at producing results led to his overseeing the Soviet atomic bomb project.
Stalin gave it absolute priority and the project was completed in under five years.
To achieve this, Beria's NKVD organised Soviet espionage against the West.
Beria was promoted to First Deputy Premier, where he carried out a brief campaign of liberalization.
He was briefly a part of the ruling "troika" with Georgy Malenkov and Vyacheslav Molotov.
Beria's overconfidence in his position after Stalin's death led him to misjudge other Politburo members.
There was a coup d'état led by Nikita Khrushchev with the military forces of Marshal Georgy Zhukov.
Beria was arrested on charges of treason during a meeting in which the full Politburo condemned him.
This was all planned by Krushchov.
The NKVD was powerless because Zhukov's troops were there.
After interrogation, Beria was taken to the basement of the Lubyanka and shot, as were six of his associates.
A secret police force is an agency most often used in dictatorships.
It is used to scare people living under a dictatorship into agreeing with the dictator's policies.
Not all dictatorships, however, use a secret police force.
Fidel Castro's Cuba and Mao Zedong's China were able to maintain a dictatorship without using secret police.

The National Fascist Party was the ruling party of the Kingdom of Italy from 1922 to 1943.
Benito Mussolini founded the party in 1919 and served as its chairman (Italian:Presidente del Partito Nazionale Fascista) from 1919 to 1943.
The party came to power after Mussolini led thousands of Blackshirts on a march in Rome and forced King Victor Emmanuel III to appoint him as Prime Minister.
Mussolini then banned all other political parties and established a one-party police state, which lasted until he was thrown out of power by his own citizens and ordered to be arrested by the King in 1943.
After Mussolini's arrest, the National Fascist Party was destroyed.

The Old Melbourne Gaol is a large, historic prison in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
The bluestone building was the first large prison built in Victoria.
It was the location of many executions, including Ned Kelly who was hanged at the prison in 1880.
It closed in 1929 and is now a museum.
Melbourne was first settled in 1835 and its first small gaol was built in 1839.
A second gaol was built in 1841 next to the Supreme Court buildings.
In 1852 work started on a new gaol based on the Pentonville Model Prison design.
This had its own outside wall of solid bluestone.
A second stage started in 1857, and the wall was extended in 1859.
In 1860 the north wing, chapel, central hall and entrance was built.
A western wing for female prisoners was started in 1862, and the outside wall was finished in 1864.
There were also 17 jailer's houses, a chief warden's house and a hospital.
It was built on a high point at the edge of the city.
However a report in 1870 said the gaol should be closed and the prisoners moved to a more suitable location.
The prison finally closed in 1929.
During World War II, the gaol was used as a military prison for Australian soldiers.
After the war it became a storage building for the Victoria Police.
Some of the buildings were pulled down to allow for the building of the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, now Victoria University.
In 1972 the buildings were taken over by the National Trust as a museum.

Leukodystrophies are disorders which affect the white matter of the brain and the nervous system.
Nerves are surrounded by fatty cover of a substance called myelin.
In a leukodystrophy, there are problems with the growth or the development of  this cover.
This affects the function of the respective nerve.
Myelin is made of at least ten different chemicals.
Leukodystrophy is a gene defect.
As a result of this defect, one of the molecules that make up myelin cannot be synthesized as it should.
The Indian Rebellion of 1857 is also called the Great Indian Event of 1857, the Indian Mutiny, the Sepoy Mutiny, India's First War of Independence or India's first struggle for independence.
It began on 10 May 1857 at Meerut, as a mutiny of sepoys of the British East India Company's army.
Sepoys in the Presidency of Bengal revolted against their British officers.
The causes of the mutiny are hard to pin down, and have been much argued about.
Before the Rebellion, there were 50,000 British troops, and 300,000 Sepoy serving in the East India Company military.
The forces were divided into three presidency armies: Bombay, Madras, and Bengal.
The make-up of these armies varied from region to region.
The Bengal Army recruited higher castes, such as Rajputs and Bhumihar brahmins.
They cut back the enlistment of lower castes in 1855.
In contrast, the Madras Army and Bombay Army were "more localised, caste-neutral armies" that "did not prefer high-caste men".
The domination of higher castes in the Bengal Army has been blamed in part for initial mutinies that led to the rebellion.
There were some changes in the terms of their service which may have created resentment.
As the  East India Company expanded, soldiers were now expected  to serve in less familiar regions, such as in Burma, and also to make do without the "foreign service" remuneration they had got previously.
Another financial grievance stemmed from the general service act, which denied retired sepoys a pension.
This applied only to new recruits, but older sepoys suspected that it might bied apply to those already in service.
Also, the Bengal Army was paid less than the Madras and Bombay Armies, which increased their fears over pensions.
The immediate event which angered the sepoys was about the ammunition for the new rifles they had to use were Enfield rifles.
The cartridges that were used in the new rifles had to be bitten open.
The Muslims were angry because they thought that the paper cartridges had pig fat in them.
This was because Muslims believe that pigs are unclean.
Hindu soldiers were angry because they believed the cartridges had cow fat in them.
On January 27, Colonel Richard Birch ordered that no cartridges should have grease on them, and that sepoys could grease them with whatever they wanted.
During the 1850s the British rulers continued to forcibly take some regions, ruled by Indians and made these regions (for example: the kingdom of Agra and Oudh, part of the present day Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, which was seized in 1856) part of the British kingdom.
Lord Dalhousie was the Governor General who decided to do this which was against Hindu customs.
They did not give any respect to old royal houses of India like the Mughals (nominally Emperors of India) and the Peshwas (the most powerful of the Maratha rulers, leaders of the Maratha Confederacy).
Rebellion broke out when a soldier called Mangal Pandey attacked a British sergeant and wounded an adjutant while his regiment was in Barrackpore.
The British killed both by hanging them because what they had done was thought to be treachery.
All other soldiers of that regiment lost their places in the army.
On May 10th 1857, cavalry troops while doing parade at Meerut broke ranks.
They freed the soldiers of the 3rd regiment, and they moved towards Delhi.
Soon many Indians of north India joined these soldiers.
They entered the Delhi Fort where Bahadur Shah II, the Mughal Emperor, lived, and asked him to become leader of the rebellion.
He agreed unwillingly.
Very soon the revolt spread throughout north India.
Important Indian leaders of royal families joined the rebellion, and started fighting the British at several places.
They included: Ahmed Ullah, an advisor of the ex-King of Oudh; Nana Saheb, his nephew Rao Saheb, and his retainers, Tantia Tope and Rani Lakshmibai; the Rani of Jhansi; Kunwar Singh; the Rajput chief of Jagadishpur in Bihar; and Firuz Saha, a relative of the Mughal Emperor, Bahadur Shah.
They also redirected many regiments that were going to China to India.
Eventually street-to-street fights broke out between the British troops and the Indians.
The massacre at Kanpur (July 1857) and the siege of Lucknow (June to November 1857) were also very important.
Battle of Gwalior
The last important battle was at Gwalior (now in Madhya Pradesh) in June 1858 in which the Rani of Jhansi was killed; a few days later the British retook the fortress of Gwalior.
However, some guerrilla fighting in many places continued until early in 1859 as Tantia Tope was captured and executed on April 1859.
British Reaction
The rebellion was an event of great importance in the front of history of modern India.
The United Kingdom started ruling India directly through its representative called the Governor General.
It promised "the Princes, Chiefs, and People of India," equal treatment under the British law.
In 1877, Queen Victoria took the title of Empress of India and the Viceroy of India ruled India for her.
The British sent Bahadur Shah II, the last Mughal Emperor, out of India, and kept him in Yangon (then called Rangoon), Burma where he died in 1862.
The British also took many steps to employ members of Indian higher castes and rulers in the government.
In England, newspapers focused on the violence of the mutiny.
Charles Dickens wrote that they (the English) should take revenge in his 1857 novella The perils of certain English prisoners.
