In the 1800s, Britain became a major colonial power in Asia primarily through its control of India and Hong Kong. The British East India Company established significant political and economic dominance in India, leading to direct British rule after the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857. Hong Kong was acquired after the First Opium War in 1842, serving as a crucial trading port and gateway to China. Together, these colonies facilitated Britain's trade, military presence, and influence across the region.

One of the best examples of a colonial protectorate in the 1800s is British control over Egypt. Although Egypt was nominally an independent state, it was effectively governed by British officials who managed its finances and military, particularly after the British occupation began in 1882. This arrangement allowed Britain to exert influence over Egyptian affairs while maintaining a facade of local governance, highlighting the characteristics of a protectorate situation.
