Temporarily being on the side of Hyder Ali who was the ruler of Mysore region (now in the state of Karnataka) in the year 1767. Nizam Ali accepted the British rule in Hyderabad by the treaty named Masulipatam in the year 1768.
British men started to install the subsidiary forces and residence in the domains of the Nizams in the year 1788. It is then when Ali Khan lost his most of the territory of Berar to the Marathas. Later, when he turned to the French men, the British seek the opportunity and increased the number of subsidiary forces in the Nizam domain. In the year 1792 and 1799 the Nizam’s Territorial earnings was an ally to the British against the great Tipu Sultan so that the cost could be yielded.
In the year 1798, Nizam Ali khan was badly surrounded by the territories of his domain either in direct or in direct control of the British (except the left region). The Nizam was hence, forced to surrender his reign to the British, becoming the first king in India to do so. He was independent to make his decisions on the internal matters.
