The countries that established trade relations with India during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries were Britain, France, Portugal, Holland and Denmark.

The early discovery of a sea route from Europe to India, was a turning point which lead to many explorers and travellers reaching India. They established relations with the local rulers and took permission to set up trading posts. Gradually, these countries established their governments in India, which lead to colonialisation.

Most European travellers took the sea route from Europe, via Cape of Good Hope in Africa, which was first discovered by the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama in 1498.
