Britain received its independence from the United Kingdom in 1947, when India became an independent nation. Prior to that, India had been ruled as a British colony for nearly two centuries. During this time, Britain exerted control over India, exploiting its resources and people for its own gain.

Britain itself did not gain independence from another country. However, many of Britain's former colonies gained independence from British colonial rule. Some notable examples include the United States, India, Canada, Australia, and numerous countries in Africa and the Caribbean.

Great Britain did not gain independence from another country. The United Kingdom, which includes England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, has not achieved independence from any external power. However, different parts of the UK, such as Scotland and Wales, have historical contexts with varying degrees of independence within the UK framework.

Britain did not gain independence from another country. Instead, the term "British independence" typically refers to situations where territories or colonies once under British rule gained their own independence. Some notable examples include:

1. The United States, which gained independence from Britain through the American Revolutionary War in 1776.

2. Various countries in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean that were part of the British Empire and gained independence during the mid-20th century.

Britain itself has not sought independence from another nation in the same way that its former colonies did. Instead, it has been an independent sovereign state throughout its history.

Britain did not gain independence from another country. Instead, it was one of the colonial powers, and many countries, including the United States, India, and various African and Caribbean nations, gained their independence from British colonial rule at different points in history.

Britain, also known as the United Kingdom (UK), has not gained its independence from another country in the way that many former colonies have. The United Kingdom is a sovereign nation, and its history primarily involves its own colonial expansion and imperial rule over other countries, rather than gaining independence from another nation.

However, some of its constituent countries, such as Ireland, did gain independence from the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland (Eire) became independent from the United Kingdom in 1922, while Northern Ireland remained part of the UK. This process led to the formation of the Irish Free State, which later became the Republic of Ireland.

Britain has never gained independence because it is a sovereign nation. However, many countries were once British colonies and gained their independence through a process of decolonization. Some notable examples include the United States in 1776, India in 1947, Canada in 1867, Australia in 1901, and many others across Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean throughout the 20th century.
