Name the famous war fought in India between the French and the English.
The correct option is C The Carnatic Wars
The Carnatic 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.
