Answer:
- Colonial India was the part of the Indian subcontinent that was under the jurisdiction of European colonial powers during the Age of Discovery.
- European power was exerted both by conquest and trade, especially in spices.
- The search for the wealth and prosperity of India led to the colonization of the Americas by Christopher Columbus in 1492. Only a few years later, near the end of the 15th century, Portuguese sailor Vasco da Gama became the first European to re-establish direct trade links with India since Roman times by being the first to arrive by circumnavigating Africa (c. 1497–1499).
- Having arrived in Calicut, which by then was one of the major trading ports of the eastern world, he obtained permission to trade in the city from Saamoothiri Rajah.
- The next to arrive were the Dutch, with their main base in Ceylon.
- Their expansion into India was halted, after their defeat in the Battle of Colachel by the Kingdom of Travancore, during the Travancore-Dutch War.
