The Gorkhali Invasion of Tibet 1855

6 min10 juli 2026

In 1855, Nepal's Rana prime minister Jung Bahadur Rana launched a war against Tibet, seeking to reclaim lost trade privileges and assert Gorkhali dominance in the Himalayas. This episode explores the little-known Tibet-Nepal War of 1855–56, from the diplomatic tensions over a Tibetan official's insult to the Gorkhali capture of Kuti and Kyerong, the Treaty of Thapathali, and the lasting impact on Nepal-Tibet relations. We examine the role of the Qing dynasty, the Tibetan Kashag, and how this conflict reshaped border trade and sovereignty in the high Himalayas.
