Question

why did hyder ali and tipu sultan think the british to be the biggest threat to the subcontinent??
plz tell me plz ​

Answer 1

The cause of the second Anglo-Mysore War (1780-84) was the growing dissatisfaction of Hyder Ali and the Nizam of Hyderabad with the English company. The English alienated both the Nizam of Hyderabad and Haider Ali by their acts. ... This infuriated Haider Ali and he decided to take revenge on the English.

Hyder Ali controlled the profitable trade in Malabar coast where the British purchased spices like pepper, cardamom. Hence, the British decided to confront these rulers with military support as they were constant threat to their political and economic interests.

Tipu remained an implacable enemy of the British East India Company, sparking conflict with his attack on British-allied Travancore in 1789. In the Third Anglo-Mysore War, he was forced into the Treaty of Seringapatam, losing a number of previously conquered territories, including Malabar and Mangalore.
