I want to know why the king of Mysore supported the Mughals before 1600 and the British after 1600 for the invasion of South India?
The king of Mysore, like many other Indian rulers of his time, formed alliances with foreign powers to gain an advantage over his rivals. In the case of the Mughals, he saw them as a powerful ally against his enemies in the Deccan sultanates. With the British, he sought their help to counter the growing threat from the Marathas and the Nizam of Hyderabad.
