In the mid-1700's the East India Company has power over commerce on the sub-continent, with the blessings of the British government.

Clive's leadership and gift for manipulation strengthen England's hold over India and lead to personal wealth, which is often threatened by the enemies he makes along the way.—Ron Kerrigan
