British could never capture this only state of India, even the Mughals failed to win it, its name is…

India was first ruled by the Mughals and then the British took over who entered the country in 1857. This ended the Mughal Empire. Babar laid the foundation of the Mughal Empire in India in 1526. The British entered the country in 1857, when they ended the Mughal Empire.

Before 1526, India was ruled by different dynasties, but Mughal rule was established after the invasion of Babar in 1526. However, during the rule of the Mughals and the British, there was a state in the country which could not be captured by either of them.

The British ruled India for about 200 years from 1858 and lasted till 1947. During this period, they looted Indian resources extensively.

During this time, there was a state in the country where neither the Mughals could establish their foothold nor the British gathered the courage to go there. That state was none other than Goa.

Goa was the only state in India which neither the Mughals nor the British could capture. However, Goa was also a slave and was ruled by the Portuguese.

The Portuguese ruled Goa for about 450 years. Goa got independence 14 years after the country got independence.

India became independent from the British on 15 August 1947, but Goa got independence from the Portuguese 14 years later on 19 December 1961.
