Why did England manage to conquer India?

Despite the fact that England was located far from India, and did not have the opportunity to transfer a large number of soldiers and weapons, she still managed to conquer the country in a short time. This is due to the fact that the feudal system has been preserved in India. Despite the antiquity of civilization, the country is mired in the Middle Ages. Village communities were closed and did not let strangers in, lived in the old fashioned way. There was a caste system in the country that hindered development. For many centuries, India was invaded by other states from the north, and the country was backward compared to the European states. Also, their religion did not allow them to kill – this is also one of the reasons.
