This scenario played out during World War II. Country A was under the colonial rule of Country B. Country B was at war with Country C. Faced with attack from C, B had to withdraw from A. Now, in A, there was a freedom struggle going on to free the country from B. The leader of this struggle was Person D. So when C drove B out of A, D welcomed C as its deliverer and joined his forces with C’s armies. But C treated A so badly that within a couple of years, D switched sides and allied himself with B once again. The country got its freedom a few years after WWII.
Identify A, B, C and D. I have put a “hint” after this line. Though I call it a hint, I think that “giveaway” would be more accurate. So my request to readers is, if you guess this after reading the hint, don’t put in your guess in the comments. Otherwise, please do. Also, I think that this question is difficult to google. So googling is allowed. If you do google, please mention that in the comments.
Now, I think that if more people knew about this story in some other country (let’s call it E) citizens of that country would stop glorifying one of their leaders (F), because E came very close to being in the same situation as B A (Corrected after CoM pointed out), in part, thanks to the efforts of F
The country B is USA, A is Phillipines, C is Japan, D is most probably Quezon.
E and F is of course easy (India and Neatji) but the question is wrong, i has to be the situation would be similar to A not B
Wrong.
(For obvious reasons, I will not give partial credit)
A is Indonesia, B refers to the Dutch, C is Japan and D is Sukarno.
I don’t think it is Sukarno. The Japanese gave independence to Indonesia and Sukarno and his acolytes had to fight an attempt at recolonisation by the Dutch. Go to wikipedia and read about Indonesia, Sukarno and Indonesian National Revolution. Sukarno was in the good books of the Japanese until the end of the war.
I too thought about Dutch, Indonesia, Sukarno and Japan but as yum yum says Sukarno was pally with Japanese. So let me guess, Ukraine, Russia, Germany abd Stepan Bandera.
1) I haven’t got the “right” answer yet (“right” means, the answer I have in mind)
2) I am aware that there could be other answers that meet the criteria I’ve described. I haven’t checked all the answers, but the ones I’ve checked don’t meet the criteria.
Got it. Burma, Britain, Japan and General Aung San. Link is here http://www.aungsan.com/SelfPortrait.htm
Good work Chentil. He seems to fit the bill.
Chenthil got it right! It is Burma and the leader is Aung San, the father of Aung San Suu kyi
Good work Chentil.
