Sir Walter Scott, commenting on the abdication of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1814, wrote: "Although I never supposed that he (Napoleon) possessed, allowing for some difference of education, the liberality of conduct and political views which were sometimes exhibited by old Haidar Ally, yet I did think he (Napoleon) might have shown the same resolved and dogged spirit of resolution with induced Tippoo Saib to die manfully upon the breach of his capital city with his sabre clenched in his hand."[

Answer 6

I do not know exactly wat happened as my knowledge is limited to the serial which saw years ago about him. he died in battle with Brithisers. and yes he was betrayed by Frenchs. they had promised Tipu that they will help him in battle but during the war they refused to help because of their colonial interest in other part of the world. actually Frenchs were not interested in making clash with Britain.
