Question

Which was the first kingdom to sign the Subsidiary Alliance?

पर्याय

• Mysore

• Awadh

• Maratha

• Jhansi

Answer 1

Mysore

Explanation:

The Nizam of Hyderabad was actually the first ruler to accept a formal Subsidiary Alliance in 1798, but he’s not one of the choices. Of the options given, Mysore was the earliest to be reduced to subsidiary status after the Fourth Anglo–Mysore War in 1799, before Awadh about 1801, or the Maratha chiefs 1802–1804.
