Answer:
The British had a number of colonies, parts of the world that they controlled, prior to taking over all of India. Many of these colonies, including India, did not have the power to fight back against the British. India was divided, making it possible for Britain to take over the whole region.
Some British leaders had power in India for over two hundred years due to their position in the East India Company, a trade business owned by the British government. In 1858, however, Great Britain decided they had to take control of the entire region after Indian leaders began a war for independence. The British had a much more powerful army and quickly took over the entire country.
