This text provides a thorough examination of the history of Myanmar
from Neolithic times to the present. Myanmar has experienced a
seemingly endless series of conquerors, dating from prehistoric
times through the reign of Kublai Khan's Mongol forces beginning in
the late 1200s, all the way through the modern era, when it was
subject to both British colonial control and invasion by the
Japanese during World War II. The History of Myanmar provides a
detailed, historical overview of the key people, places, and events
in this often-overlooked country's past and present. It examines
the history of Myanmar, from Neolithic times to all of its ruling
dynasties to the modern era in a chronological manner, providing a
contextual framework for the further exploration of its complex
history. This text pays special attention to the unique
circumstances that led to the formation of the modern nation of
Myanmar. Provides a chronology of the key events in Myanmar's
history Maps of early Kobang Burma and of Indochina (showing the
proposed Burma-Siam-China railway) helps provide perspective A
bibliography of significant materials allows continued study of
Myanmar Includes more than 40 engaging biographical sketches of the
key figures in the history of Myanmar Helpful indexes offer easy
reference to key terms
