ANGLO-FRENCH RIVALRY
The English and the French Companies had been established with the object of trading with India. But when, after the invasion of Nadir Shah, they found the Mughal empire weak, both of them sought to establish political power. The natural result was a war between them, which lasted for about twenty years. This war was fought in the Carnatic because both the Companies had important possessions in that part. The English came out victorious in the end.
