Solution

The correct option is B Europe
The First Carnatic War (1744-48) was a continuation of the war of Austrian succession which broke out in Europe in 1740. Dupleix was the french Governor-General of Pondicherry during the war. In September 1746, the French captured the Madras almost without any opposition and the British were made prisoners of war. The war finally ended in 1748 with the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle.
