If it hadn't collapsed, it would have collapsed! All empires collapse eventually. If the British Empire hadn't collapsed after World War II it would have collapsed eventually.

Why did the Germans invade England?
The Germans did not invade England in modern times such as during the first or second World Wars. Some German tribes did invade England around the 5th century AD, ending the Roman-British culture established there by the Roman Empire. The main reason the Germans didn't invade in the 2nd world war was the British fought and won against the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, meaning the British had air superiority. It would be suicidal to attempt air or amphibious invasion without air superiority, therefore the Germans didn't invade.
How might Indian history have been different if the British has not ruled India?
Well, if the British wouldn't have come to rule over India, then everything would have been changed. Some activities like the abolishment of Sati, or the introduction of Widow Remarriage Act, or even the abolishment of Child Marriage wouldn't have happened. We wouldn't have been speaking English also, if this rule never took place. We would have also been THE richest country in the whole world.

How did Britain gain control over most of India by 1858?
As a result of the mutiny, the British ended the rule of the East India Company in 1858. From then on, the British government would rule India directly. Although the British moved away from some of the social regulations that had angered many Indians, distrust continued between the British and the Indians. The era of British control in India brought many changes. The British introduced their own governmental, legal, and educational systems, the English language, and new forms of technology and industry. These changes to India's economy and society, combined with unhappiness over foreign control, led to the growth of nationalism in India. Britain gained control over India by ending the rule of the East India Company. This was in the year 1858.
Some of the modernization implemented by British India?
Arguably Yes, I believe The Indians Were given a flag which was a symbol of identity which i don't think they had before the British turned up. Also they were taught how to have a 'nice' British style garden (arguably a positive). Also They were Taught about new Infrastructure's that had not been introduced yet, and they were traded with For spice and Tea' and other local items the British had not yet encountered; The fairness of these trades is Highly debatable, but the British Did not just turn up steal everything, Rape and Pillage and disappear again, Eventually A British Raj was Appointed and The East India Company regulated all trade throughout the Region until India Declared Independence
