Anglo-Maratha Wars:
The Anglo-Maratha Wars were a series of conflicts between Britain's East India Company (employing a private army) and the Maratha Empire of India. They were the focal point of the colonization effort of India in the 19th century.

Answer and Explanation:
The largest and most direct consequence of the Third Anglo-Maratha War was the political and economic hegemony of the East India Company over most of the Indian subcontinent. This war was the last major effort of British imperialism to dominate India, and victory meant that for the next century and a half the British Empire would totally control India, including its lucrative trade markets. With the Maratha Empire defeated, India lacked any large power to organize major resistance to the British, allowing them to divide and conquer the rest of the region. Thus, victory in the war led to the East India Company gaining control over most of the country.
