The British period is called colonial because it refers to the time when Britain established and maintained control over various territories around the world, particularly in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. This colonial rule involved the establishment of settlements, the exploitation of resources, and the imposition of British laws and culture on indigenous populations. The term highlights the dominance and influence of British imperial interests during this era, which lasted from the late 16th century until the mid-20th century.
