India was a busy hub for trade, attracting merchants from all over the world because of its wealth and the valuable things it produced.

In 1498, a Portuguese explorer named Vasco da Gama arrived in India by sailing around Africa. This was a big deal because it was the first time a European had reached India by sea. This event marked the beginning of European influence in India, meaning that Europeans started to have more of an impact on India's history and way of life.

1947: Securing Independence from Britain

# data[].attributes.body
After years of struggle and protests, India finally gained independence from Britain in 1947. This was a huge moment in Indian history, as it meant that India was no longer under British rule. However, the process of gaining independence was not simple, and it also led to the separation of India into two different countries: India and Pakistan. This partition caused a lot of uproar and violence, as people moved between the two newly created countries.
