But the worst thing the Britishers did to raise their Empire for Imperialism was to destroy the History of the country they ruled and taught the politics of deceit or Divide and Rule policy behind, after they get forced to leave that country.
Since the beginning, Britishers were looking for a way to rule over India and they got the way to do it as East India Company. Indians took the Britishers lightly and took the advantage of it. Britishers ruled on India, Canada, Africa and many more place. They had 13 colonies in different countries.
India was in rich in minerals, land basically in all. Their intentions was to grab all the powers, special minerals like gold, diamonds and they had even taken away the peacock throne.
