The immense wealth of India brought the Europeans to the land. The traveler's account spread the news of wealth of India among the people of Europe. Initially, the main business of Europeans in India was a commercial one. Until the arrival of the Europeans the external trade of India was conducted by the Arab traders.
In the early medieval period, the Arab traders brought various commodities such as calicoes, spices, precious stones, silk and porcelain etc, to Europe, that grabbed the attention of the European traders. The western traders required a safe sea route to expelled the Arab traders from the sea, this need was accompanied by the inventions made by Europeans in the field of shipbuilding and navigation.
Their advanced techniques led the rulers of Europe to send voyages to some parts of the world. There began a season for the exploration of various hidden places on the Earth.
The first-ever discovery run was started by the Portuguese. A group of sailors under the leadership of Vasco Da Gama discovered India on the invitation of the king Zamorin. The main motif of the Portuguese was to establish their monopoly on the trade of India, for this they adopted harsh measures that led them to become the rivals of the Arab Muslims. Thereafter, Dutch, the British and then the French came to India for trading.
