Abstract: "Control by one power over a dependent area or people" is the definition of colonialism. In actuality, colonialism is the violent invasion and occupation of another nation by one nation, which then claims the territory and relocates its citizens, dubbed "settlers." Despite their frequent interchangeability, colonialism and imperialism are not the same concepts. Imperialism is characterized as a system of laws and customs that increases a country's authority over the social, political, and cultural spheres of other countries. Imperialism can be defined as the rationale or philosophy that justifies colonial endeavors. Queen Victoria founded the British Raj in India in 1858, and until Indian independence in 1947, Britain remained the country's dominating power structure. Despite the fact that a great deal of fiction and critical research has attempted to depict aspects of the British Empire's existence in India and its psychological consequences on Indian residents.

Keywords: Colonialism, Civilize, Red-Nosed Boy, Missionaries, Anglo-Indian.
