<p>43.241.145.136: </p> <hr /> <div>{{Short description|1769 treaty between Mysore and the East India Company}}<br /> {{EngvarB|date=June 2017}}<br /> {{Use dmy dates|date=June 2017}}<br /> The '''Treaty of Madras''' was a peace agreement signed on 4 April 1769 between [[Kingdom of Mysore|Mysore]] and the British (Lord [[Harry Verelst (colonial governor)|Harry Verelst]]) [[East India Company]] which brought an end to the [[First Anglo-Mysore War]]. Fighting had broken out in 1767 and the forces of [[Hyder Ali]] had come close to capturing [[Madras]] at one point.<br /> <br /> The Treaty contained a clause requiring the British to assist Hyder Ali if he was attacked by his neighbours. Hyder felt this agreement was broken when he didn't receive any help when Mysore went to war with the [[Maratha Empire|Marathas]] in 1771. Bad faith arising from the broken clause may have been a reason behind the outbreak of the [[Second Anglo-Mysore War]] a decade later.&lt;ref name=Naravane&gt;{{Cite book |last=Naravane |first=M.S. |title=Battles of the Honorourable East India Company |publisher=A.P.H.
