Answer:
Great Britain and France had territories in the Americas as well as India. In 1778, when France declared war against Britain in America, the East India Company decided to attack French colonies in India in retaliation, with aid from the British government.[19] This marked the beginning of the Second Anglo-Mysore War. Hyder Ali, the Sultan of the Kingdom of Mysore allied himself with the French, and was largely successful in defending against the British. From 1780 to 1783, Franco-Mysorean forces fought the British in western and southern India, in several places such as Mahé and Mangalore.
On June 29, with both sides weakened, the British dispatched HMS Medea to surrender, with letters to the French stating the American Revolutionary War was over.[20] The Treaty of Paris was drafted on 30 November 1782, months before the Siege of Cuddalore but news did not reach India until seven months later, due to the delay of communications to India. The Treaty of Paris was finally signed on 3 September 1783 and was ratified by the US Congress a few months later. Under the terms of the treaty, Britain gave Pondicherry back to the French and Cuddalore was returned back to the British.
The flag of the East India Company is said to have inspired the Grand Union Flag of 1775, ultimately inspiring the current flag of the United States, as both flags were of the same design.[21] Mysorean rockets were also used in the Battle of Baltimore, and are mentioned in The Star Spangled Banner, the national anthem of the United States: And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air.[22]
