Hyder Ali,
who joined the army as a foot soldier, came to prominence. By many
accounts, he enjoyed the confidence of Maharaja Krishnaraja Wodeyar II,
and hence essayed a meteoric rise in the affairs of the Kingdom. During
the minority of Maharaja Nanjaraja Wodeyar, Hyder Ali rose to become the de facto ruler of the state, retaining the Wodeyars as nominal rulers. His son Tipu Sultan dispensed with this charade and assumed full royal powers. Tipu Sultan prosecuted a brilliant military career; the Mysore Kingdom found itself in a series of four wars with the British East India Company, which was then expanding its control in India. In 1799 Tipu Sultan was finally defeated by the British in the fourth Mysore War. After his defeat wodeyars were restored as Princes by British .
