Geographical or Climatic Causes for Anglo-Nepal War

The British people came from a cold climate. They disliked the hot and humid climate of the Indian plains. They wanted to live in places having moderate climate. The hills of Nepal had such climatically suitable places for the British. Therefore, the British wanted to occupy the hills of Nepal for their summer residences. The British liked Nepal for the following reasons:

  • Pleasant and cool climate of Nepal.
  • Nepal's richness in eco-geographical aspects like water, forest and natural beauty.
  • Nepal's geo-strategic location between China and India.
