Nawab Sayyid Mansur Ali Khan (29 October 1830 – 4 November 1884) was Nawab of Bengal until his abdication in 1880, whereupon he renounced his titles and position as Nawab of Bengal.
 Bengal had been under occupation of the British East India Company since 1773 when Warren Hastings was appointed by the East India Company as the first Governor-General of Bengal.
 By 1793 British East India company took complete control of Bengal (former Mughal province), making Mansur Khan just a titular ruler under the British Raj.
The Carnatic Wars (also spelled Karnatic Wars) were a series of military conflicts in the middle of the 18th century in India.
 The conflicts involved numerous nominally independent rulers and their vassals, struggles for succession and territory, and included a diplomatic and military struggle between the French East India Company and the British East India Company.
 They were mainly fought on the territories in India which were dominated by the Nizam of Hyderabad up to the Godavari delta.
 As a result of these military contests, the British East India Company established its dominance among the European trading companies within India.
 The French company was pushed to a corner and was confined primarily to Pondichéry.
 The East India company's dominance eventually led to control by the British Company over most of India and eventually to the establishment of the British Raj.
Mir Qasim (also spelt Mir Kasim; full name: Mir Kasim Ali Khan) (died May 8, 1777) was the Nawab of Bengal from 1760 to 1763.
 He was installed as Nawab with the support of the British East India Company, replacing Mir Jafar, his father-in-law, who had himself been supported earlier by the East India Company after his role in the Battle of Plassey.
 However, Mir Jafar was in conflict with the East India company over too many demands and tried to tie up with the Dutch East India Company.
 The British eventually overran the Dutch forces at Chinsura and played a major role in replacing Mir Jafar with Mir Qasim.
 Qasim later fell out with the British and fought them at the Battle of Buxar.
 His defeat has been suggested as the last real chance of preventing a gradual British expansion in large parts of North East India following Britain's victory in the Seven Years War.
The Battle of Gujrat was a decisive battle in the Second Anglo-Sikh War, fought on 21 February 1849, between the forces of the East India Company, and a Sikh army in rebellion against the Company's control of the Sikh Empire, represented by the child Maharaja Duleep Singh who was in British custody in Lahore.
 The Sikh army was defeated by the British regular and Bengal Army forces of the British East India Company.
 After it capitulated a few days later, the Punjab was annexed to the East India Company's territories and Duleep Singh was deposed.
The jute trade is centred mainly around Bangladesh and the Indian State of West Bengal.
 The major producing country of jute is Bangladesh, due to its natural fertile soil.
 Bengal Jute was taken to Europe early in the 17th century by the Dutch and the French and later by the East India Company to Britain.
 By the 1790s a much larger trade had developed in the Scottish city of Dundee, the European home of jute spinners.
 Introduced to the British by the East India Company, crude fibre was the bulk still exported from Bengal after 1790, but a thriving trade did not really begin until after 1850 through mechanised processing, to meet rising demand.
 Raw jute was imported from Bengal by the British East India Company.
 British Jute Barons grew rich processing jute and selling manufactured products made from jute.
 Dundee Jute Barons and the British East India Company began to set up jute mills in Bengal and by 1895 jute industries in Bengal overtook the Scottish jute trade.
 Many Scots emigrated to Bengal to set up jute factories.
 More than a billion jute sandbags were exported from Bengal to the trenches during World War I and even more during WWII and also exported to the Americas, especially the United States southern region to bag cotton and coffee.
 It was used in the fishing, construction, art and in the arms industry.
 India, China, Thailand, Myanmar also produce Jute in low quantities.
 India is one of the largest importers of Jute in South Asia and also produces processed jute products in the world, while Bangladesh is the largest producer and exporter of raw jute.
 Therefore, the local price of raw jute in Bangladesh is the international price.
 Ironically, the local price of jute goods produced in India set their own price.
The Indian Rebellion of 1857 was a major, but ultimately unsuccessful, uprising in India in 1857–58 against the rule of the British East India Company, which functioned as a sovereign power on behalf of the British Crown.
 The rebellion began on 10 May 1857 in the form of a mutiny of sepoys of the Company's army in the garrison town of Meerut, 40 miles northeast of Delhi (now Old Delhi).
 It then erupted into other mutinies and civilian rebellions chiefly in the upper Gangetic plain and central India, though incidents of revolt also occurred farther north and east.
 The rebellion posed a considerable threat to British power in that region, and was contained only with the rebels' defeat in Gwalior on 20 June 1858.
 On 1 November 1858, the British granted amnesty to all rebels not involved in murder, though they did not declare the hostilities formally to have ended until 8 July 1859.
 The rebellion is known by many names, including the Sepoy Mutiny, the Indian Mutiny, the Great Rebellion, the Revolt of 1857, the Indian Insurrection, and India's First War of Independence.
John Doyle (abt.
 1828 - August 1892) was an Irishman who served in the 8th King's Royal Irish Hussars (a light cavalry unit) as a Private soldier during the Crimean War and the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
The East India Company, also known as the English East India Company, the British East India Company, and the Honourable East India Company was an English company founded in 1600
Major-General Robert Clive, 1st Baron Clive, {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (29 September 1725 – 22 November 1774), also known as Clive of India, Commander-in-Chief of British India, was a British officer and privateer who established the military and political supremacy of the East India Company in Bengal.
 He is credited with securing a large swath of South Asia (Bangladesh, India, Pakistan) and the wealth that followed, for the British East India Company.
 In the process, he also turned himself into a multi-millionaire.
 Together with Warren Hastings he was one of the key early figures setting in motion what would later become British India.
 Blocking impending French mastery of India, and eventual British expulsion from the continent, Clive improvised a military expedition that ultimately enabled the East India Company to adopt the French strategy of indirect rule via puppet government.
 Hired by the company to return a second time to India, Clive conspired to secure the Company's trade interests by overthrowing the locally unpopular heir to the throne of "Bengal," the richest state in India, richer than Britain, at the time.
 Back in England, he sat as a Tory Member of Parliament in London.
Mir Jafar Ali Khan Bahadur (c. 1691–5 February 1765) was the first Nawab of Bengal with support from the British East India Company.
 He was the second son of Sayyid Ahmad Najafi.
 His rule is widely considered the start of British imperialism in India and was a key step in the eventual British domination of vast areas of the subcontinent.
 Siraj ud-Daulah, the previous Nawab of Bengal along with his army were defeated and killed in the Battle of Plassey by the British due to the betrayal of the commander of Siraj ud-Daulah′s army, Mir Jafar, who betrayed Siraj ud-Daulah to become the next Nawab.
 Thus after helping the British defeat Siraj ud-Daulah he became the new Nawab of Bengal in 1757 with military support from the British East India Company as a reward for his betrayal.
 However, Jafar failed to satisfy constant British demands for money.
 In 1758, Robert Clive discovered that through his agent Khoja Wajid, Jafar had made a treaty with the Dutch at Chinsurah.
 Dutch ships of war were also seen in the River Hooghly.
 Circumstances led to the Battle of Chinsurah.
 British company official Henry Vansittart proposed that since Jafar was unable to cope with the difficulties, Mir Qasim, Jafar's son-in-law, should act as Deputy Subahdar.
 In October 1760, the company forced him to abdicate in favor of Qasim.
 However, Qasim's independent spirit and plan to force the East India company out of his dominion led to his overthrow, and Jafar was restored as the Nawab in 1763 with the support of the company.
 Mir Qasim however refused to accept this and went to war against the company.
 Jafar ruled until his death on 17 January 1765 and lies buried at the Jafarganj Cemetery in Murshidabad, West Bengal, India.
