The Sino-Nepalese War occurred between 1788 and 1792, primarily involving the forces of the Kingdom of Nepal and the Qing Dynasty of China. The conflict arose due to territorial disputes and Nepal's expansionist ambitions into regions controlled by China. The war ended with a treaty that established the borders between the two nations. Following the war, the Treaty of Betrawati was signed in 1792, which required Nepal to pay tribute to China. This conflict marked a significant moment in the history of Nepal, influencing its foreign relations and territorial integrity for years to come.
