Treaty of Mangalore

The Treaty of Mangalore, signed in 1784, ended the Second Anglo-Mysore War between the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore, led by Sultan Tipu. It restored peace after years of conflict, returning territories captured by both sides and recognizing Tipu's sovereignty. The treaty marked a significant retreat for the British, acknowledging their limitations in the region. This agreement laid the groundwork for future interactions between the British and the Indian states, shaping colonial dynamics in southern India.
