India and china were the richest countries in the past. They attracted traders from Europe in droves. The biggest trading co was the East India co. from Britain. After they got trade concessions from Mughal emperors, they slowly amassed power, overpowered small individual kingdoms one by one and annexed them and ultimately became the ruler. One good came out of it. By ruling the whole country they united all Indians and created one nation. if not for the British, India would have been like the European Union, with various small countries.
