I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was the big fear that brought the British government to extend the deadline for the trade license for the company?
All the background I'm provided with is that "In 1742, fearing the monetary consequences of a war, the British government agreed to extend the deadline for the licensed exclusive trade by the company in India until 1783, in return for a further loan of £1 million.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
