The First Anglo–Mysore War (1766–1769) was a conflict in India between the Sultanate of Mysore and the East India Company. The war was instigated in part by the machinations of Asaf Jah II, the Nizam of Hyderabad, who sought to divert the company's resources from attempts to gain control of the Northern Circars.

Answer:
Reason of the First Anglo Mysore War:
- The Marathas attacked Mysore in 1771.
- As a result, Hyder Ali's territories were taken by the Marathas.
- This angered Hyder Ali who started hating the British.
- When the English attacked Mahe, a French possession under Hyder Ali's dominion, he declared war on the English in 1780.
Results of the First Anglo Mysore War:
- The First Anglo-Mysore War (1767–69) saw Hyder Ali enjoy some measure of success against the British, almost capturing Madras.
- The British convinced the Nizam of Hyderabad to attack Hyder.
- That was temporary, however, and the Nizam signed a new treaty with the British in February 1768.
