Description

Haydar 'Alī came from a family of calvary officers in the Mysore army. While serving in Mysore as a commandant, Haydar 'Alī had many occasions to learn about European methods of fighting and was deeply impressed. As early as 1755-56, he is said to have obtained the services of Frenchmen to organize his artillery, arsenal and workshop. Haydar 'Alī 's rise to power was the result of not only his personal dipolmatic skills, but largely on the armed power he acquired. His brilliant combination of European styled musket-using infantry and mobile calvary organized on the Mughal pattern proved invincible. Undoubtedly, he was the first important Indian commander to realize the value of European methods for drilling infantry, whom he tried to provide with flintlocks. Intervening in a struggle between the raja and his powerful minister, Haydar 'Alī styled himself the power behind the throne. After receiving the title of Haydar 'Alī Khan from the Mughal Viceroy of the Deccan, Haydar 'Alī found pretense to claime himself superior to the Raja of Mysore and took over control of the state. Shortly thereafter, he would go on to expand towards the Malabar coast.

Description

Upon the death of his father in 1782, Tīpū Sāhib assumed the status of de facto ruler of Mysore. Tīpū Sāhib continued his father's policy of hostility towards the British. He also sought to increase the size of his Kingdom by raiding the minor potentates of the Venad.
