March 1856 CE

The signing of the Treaty of Thapathali concludes the Nepalese–Tibetan War on March 24, 1856.

The Tibetans had feared a rebellion in Kham while Nepalese finances were stretched to their limits.

The Nepalese demand for ten million rupees had been dropped to a nominal annual payment and Nepalese territorial ambitions had been dropped.

In the Treaty signed at Thapathali, near Kathmandu, the Tibetans agree to pay an annual subsidy of ten thousand rupees to the Nepal Durbar and to allow a Nepalese trading station and agency to be established at Lhasa.

Tibet will pay a lump sum of Rs. 50,001 as first installment, but will refuse to pay the following year, causing conflict between the two nations to continue.
