British Empire and its dominions always was significantly distinguished through the strong ties which people connected to the mother-country of Britain. However, as always in history changes were about to happen as each dominion urged to become more and more independent.

strongest drive is to have dominion from a biblical perspective. When God first created Adam, of the first tasks given to Adam was to take care of God’s creation. (Gen. 1:28) He was given great responsibility over organisms, as God instructed him to name every one. Adam was given the duty to till the earth and its soil, and thus he did. His drive was to have dominion over his environment, as God gave him the right to do so. After God primarily spoke to Adam about having dominion over the creatures, God
