In Porbandar, India Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born on October 2nd 1869. Growing up as a child Mahatma wasn’t always the best student. He did not show any signs that he would grow up to be such a remarkable person in life. It was after Mohandas became a legend when he got his nickname ‘Mahatma’ meaning Great Soul. At age 13 Gandhi was married. When Gandhi went to college he received his first of his four sons. In college, gandhi wasn’t happy. Gandhi lived in South Africa for 21 years studying and working for law. When Gandhi returned back to India in 1916 that was when he realized he wanted to be devoted to peace. There, Gandhi got into everything peace. When he was young he went to England to study Law and then shortly became a lawyer. He changed the world by making people view the world in a different perspective. It was normal for people to see war and discrimination, but when Gandhi taught people a new way of life they saw the world in a different way. Because of everything Gandhi did, people started to figure out you can solve problems without war and problems.
