Answer 2

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The Europeans first arrived on the Indian subcontinent during the period of the Mughal Empire. The Mughal Empire was a powerful empire that ruled much of the Indian subcontinent from the 16th to the mid-19th century. European powers such as the Portuguese, Dutch, French, and British established trading posts and settlements on the Indian subcontinent during the Mughal period, primarily for the trade of spices, textiles, and other commodities. The British East India Company ultimately gained control over much of India by the mid-19th century, leading to the eventual colonization of the country by the British Empire.
