Draft:Konkan Campaigns
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The succession war after the death of Sidi Rasul Yakut in February 1733 ignited a complex and protracted conflict for control over his kingdom, marked by intrigue, shifting alliances, and external interventions. Abdulla, the rightful heir, found himself challenged by his own kin, including his son Sidi Rahman, amidst the ambitions of rebellious governors like Shaikh Yakub Khan. The situation escalated with the involvement of the Marathas, led by Baji Rao and later joined by the Pratinidhi, in a campaign against the Sidis. Despite initial successes, including the conquest of key fortresses, the conflict endured due to the resilience of Janjira fortress and external support sought by the Sidis from European powers and regional rulers[1][2][3]
