Years: 1852 - 1863

The pendulum once again swings toward Madagascar's modernization and cordial relations with Western nations, particularly France, during the reign of Radama II (r. 1861-63).

Radama II makes a treaty of perpetual friendship with France, but his brief rule ends with his assassination by a group of nobles alarmed by his pro-French stance.

He is succeeded by his widow, who will rule until 1868, during which time she will annul the treaty with France and the charter of Laborde's company.
