Explanation

After completing his law education in England, Mahatma Gandhi went to South Africa in 1893 to practice law. He spent 21 years in South Africa (1893-1914) where he developed his political and ethical philosophy, including satyagraha (truth-force and nonviolent resistance). He represented Indian traders' interests and fought against racial discrimination there before returning to India in 1915. Option B 'South Africa' is the correct answer.
