It is possible to list at least four basic forces which brought about the dissolution of the British Empire. First, both Britain and her colonies recognized that some kind of self government was necessary in territories which were separated by thousand of miles from Britain. Administration centered in London was increasingly difficult and expensive. Secondly, the colonies themselves began to chafe against British rule and to demand to manage their own affairs. A note of aggressive nationalism entered into the appeals for self-government. In the third place, individual British colonies and other nations began to forge economic social and political links. Two world wars also greatly reduced Britain’s power in the world and made some colonies look elsewhere for leadership.
