Who maintained british
control of india from the
mid-1700s to the mid-1800s?
how is this an example of
indirect rule?

Explanation :The British were able to conquer

India by exploiting its diversity. Even when Mughal power was at

its height, India was home to many people and cultures. As

Mughal power crumbled, India became fragmented. Indians with

different traditions and dozens of different languages were not

able to unite against the newcomers. The British took advantage

of Indian divisions by encouraging competition and disunity

among rival princes. Where diplomacy or intrigue did not work,

the British used their superior weapons to overpower local rulers.They used the country for their natural resources. Missionaries and British government officals controlled India
