Asking this for my 5-year-old niece. I, myself am 21 years old, don’t know how exactly they did it and am exceptionally bad at Humanities.
I don’t quite understand how the Britishers convinced/bewitched/overruled the rulers of a nation. From what I understand, they struck deals and what-not. Can you please explain a **bird’s eye view** of the entire situation so that I can explain it to my niece?

They showed up in boats with cannons and an army with guns and trade goods that locals had never seen before.
It’s almost on the order of imagine aliens landing picking a fight and then vaporizing a whole carrier battle group or the 101st airborne, with super advanced weapons and offering to trade a access to unlimited clean energy if they can rule earth. After that if they wish to rule, what practical method do you have of challenging them?
