In 1788, Gurkha forces from Nepal invaded Tibet, seizing border fortresses and marching on Tashilhunpo Monastery. This episode unpacks the geopolitical crisis that preceded the better-known 1792 Qing-Gurkha War. We look at the Gurkha king Rana Bahadur Shah and his commander-in-chief Damodar Pande, the Tibetan amban and Kashag's failed diplomacy, and the Panchen Lama's role in a ransom that bought time. The war exposed the Ganden Phodrang's military weakness and set the stage for the Qing intervention led by Fuk'anggan four years later. We also examine the contested accounts—some Tibetan sources say the Gurkhas sacked the monastery, while others describe a negotiated withdrawal. This is the forgotten first act of a conflict that reshaped Tibet's borders and its relationship with its Himalayan neighbours. #Tibet #GurkhaWar #Tashilhunpo #PanchenLama #LobsangPaldenYeshe #RanaBahadurShah #DamodarPande #amban #Kashag #GandenPhodrang #Fuk'anggan #1788 #Nepal #Himalayas #QingDynasty #History #FexingoHistory #EastAsia Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
