Who was the colonial power in India?

The British Empire was the main colonial power in India. Denmark did hold some rights to the land but they were sold to the British on October 16, 1868 (ex: Nicobar Islands). The British were informally the colonial power as of 1848 with the appointment of Lord Dalhousie as the Governor General over East India Company domain. However, they are viewed as formally taking control after the 1857 Indian Rebellion was repressed in 1858. They were the colonial power in India until independance was declared on August 15, 1947. The Indian Republic was officially created on January 26, 1950.


What if the british lost the 7 year war?

If the British had lost the Seven Years' War, it would have drastically altered the balance of power in North America and India. France might have retained significant territorial holdings in North America, potentially leading to a stronger French influence in the region and delaying or changing the course of American independence. In India, a French victory could have strengthened French colonial ambitions, impacting the eventual dominance of the British East India Company. Overall, a British defeat could have resulted in a very different geopolitical landscape, with long-lasting implications for both Europe and its colonies.
