Explanation:

The Battle of Plassey was the decisive battle fought between Nawab of Bengal Siraj ud Daulah and British Colonel Robert Clive. Siraj Ud Daulah had an alliance with the French and the battle is regarded by many as Asian chapter of the seven years war fought between the two countries. Nawab of Bengal had severely superior force but still suffered defeat because many of his generals like Mir Jafar, Yar Lutuf Khan, etc were bribed by Britishers.

And believe me when I say that we were far better under British than we would have been under any other Imperial power of the time.Four years later Marathas were defeated in the Battle of Panipat which created the much necessary power vaccum in India, providing Britishers with a relative ease in taking over the sub-continent.
