The First Anglo-Powhatan War was the result of Lord de la Warr's orders to George Percy on August 9, 1610. Percy and seventy men went to the capital town of Paspahegh where the English killed or injured fifity or more people and captured a wife of Wowinchopunch, the weroance, and her children. After returning to their boat, the Englishmen killed the children by throwing them overboard and shooting them in the water. The killing of women and children was not tolerable in Powhatan warfare: it greatly affected Powhatan and his people. The Paspaheghs never recovered from this and appeared to have merged with other chiefdoms. http://www.mariner.org/chesapeakebay/native/nam021.html
The British Government wanted to establish the Dual system in Maharashtra also as they had set up in Bengal. The mutual differences of Marathas gave British a chance to interfere. In 1772 the fourth peshwa Madhav Rao died and he was succeded by Narain Rao but he was murdered by Raghunath Rao (Raghoba). Nana Phadnis proclaimed the posthumous son of Madhav Rao as the Peshwa. This irretated Raghoba and he signed " The Treaty of Surat (1775)" with Bombay Government in the hope of the throne. Now British East India Company declared war against Marathas. All the maratha chiefs got united under the leadership of Nana Phadnis and defeated the British at many places. At last " The Treaty of Salbai (1782)" was signed and according to this treaty:
(a) Raghunath Rao was pensioned by the Pune Government.
(b) The neighbouring islands around Bombay and Salsette were allowed to remain the British possession.
(c) The war prisoners were exchanged.
