During World war One, India was under British rule and part of the British empire. The British were fighting the Germans and the Austria-Hungarians during world war one.
BUT while this was happening the Indians were making ground in India killing off the soldiers left there. After some time time, the Indians won the little fight and got their land back.

How did the writings of people like john Locke lead colonists to resent the british government?
John Locke's writings, such as his theory of natural rights and limited government, inspired colonists to value individual liberties and question British authority. Colonists felt that the British government's infringement on their natural rights, such as through taxation without representation and strict control, went against the principles of liberty and consent of the governed espoused by Locke. This ultimately fueled their resentment towards the British government.

Did Irish people serve with allies during 2 world war?
To be confirmed by others, but I'm certain that Irish people did serve on the Allies side in WW2 but only as members/volunteers of the British army. Ireland was officially neutral in WW2. I heard/read that British soldiers marooned off the coast of Ireland were interred in Irish "POW" camps in Ireland. These camps were pretty lax though, allowing them to be out during the day but had to be back in camp at nightfall.
