The Toungoo Dynasty 1531–1752
Tabinshwehti was to restore the kingship. He was only fifteen, but the dice were loaded in his favour. The Shan irruption had driven the Burmese south to Toungoo, greatly increasing his man-power; he was in touch with Kyaukse, the richest area in Upper Burma and the key to Ava; and to crown all, his opponents were Shans, a hill-race with a congenital incapacity for combined action. Tabinshwehti had maintained a cart-track from Pegu to Toungoo; he…
Arakan
Shut off from Burma by a hill range, Arakan has a separate history, but it is the same in kind. Before 1437 Sandoway was usually independent. The ease of sea communications renders it likely that Buddhism reached Arakan earlier than the interior of Burma, and the Mahamuni image may well date from the early centuries of the Christian era. The raiders lay inside the mouth of the Hinya river at Chittagong; the Arakanese secretly sank boats laden wit…
Burma Before 1044
Burma, being little more than the valleys of a river system shut off from the outer world by hills and sea, is fitted to be the home of a unified people. The Shans did not enter the plains till the thirteenth century and the Kachins were penetrating Upper Burma when the English annexed it in 1885. In Upper Burma Indian immigrants came overland through Assam; in Lower Burma they came by sea from Madras. The Chinese describe Burma in the ninth cent…
Shan Dominion 1287–1531
The Great Khan accepted the conquest of Burma that it was an accomplished fact, and for the two and a half centuries the princelets who ruled the various parts of Upper and even of Lower Burma usually held authority under the Chinese seal. Technically they were Chinese governors; actually they were the native chieftains who would have ruled there in any case, and they did as they pleased. Since the Nanchao barrier states were henceforth the Chine…
Alaungpaya Dynasty 1752–1824
Alaungpaya built a state hut and sent ten horsemen to conduct them respectfully to it. But they were conducted along a hollow road and in the bushes on each side lay his musket men. Alaungpaya received many a check but his men fought with the greatest spirit, rushing up to stockades and tearing them down with dahs and axes. Alaungpaya had been hailed as king from the first and had already built a palace at Shwebo. Alaungpaya wrote to their leader…
The Overseas Discoveries
Alexander’s campaigns resulted in a network of Greek kingdoms on the north-west frontier of India. Under the Roman Empire, Roman ships went regularly down the Red Sea and as far east as Ceylon. Kings in ancient India issued coinage on the Roman model. The overseas discoveries resulted in a redistribution of power in Europe. Hitherto civilisation had centred round the Mediterranean. But these discoveries reduced the Mediterranean to a lake, and po…
The Kingdom of Pagan or The Dynasty of The Temple Builders 1044–1287
The Chola lord was probably travelling on some mission, for the Chola dynasty of Madras fostered maritime trade. Their conquest of Kedah in the Malay states brought them into subordinate relations with their own colony, the flourishing Hindu kingdom of Palembang in east Sumatra. On the outside of the temple are fifteen hundred plaques illustrating the jataka stories of Buddha’s previous existences, each explained by a short inscription in Pali or…
History of Burma
Originally published in 1983, this book explores the history of Burma, including chapters on Burma before 1044, The Kingdom of Pagan and the Shan Dominion. Burma's history had been little studied until recently, until the Burma Research Socety, founded in 1910, began to collect material of all kinds, and this book may be regarded therefore as one of the first-fruits. The book presents a mass of original work and incorporates the results of resear…
