In Li Shangyin's poem, it is mentioned that "I remember the lotus seat and smell the Bayeux sutra". More than 80% of Myanmar's more than 53 million people believe in Buddhism.

The history of Myanmar can be traced back to 5000 years ago. At that time, all the villages along the Irrawaddy River in Myanmar were inhabited by human beings. Myanmar is divided into "Upper Myanmar" and "Lower Myanmar", which is an artificial division after British colonial rule. It is said that in 200 BC, Pyu entered the upper reaches of Irrawaddy River and took control of the trade routes between China and India. Two centuries later, the Mongols came to the Xitang River Basin. In 849, the Burmese took over the Si River Basin and established Pagan. Bagan Dynasty (1044-1287) The Bagan Dynasty was established in 1047 by Kingana Awrahta (1044-1047 reigned). It was the first unified empire in Myanmar, with Hinayana Buddhism as its core. King Anulutuo conquered Khan and Meng successively, and also expanded his territory continuously. During the reign of King Halanxi (111167), Hinayana Buddhism gradually became the mainstream and reached its peak at the beginning of13rd century. Of the more than 3,000 temples built at that time, 100 have been preserved to this day. 1287, Kublai Khan, the ruler of the Yuan Dynasty, led the Yuan army to invade, ending the Bagan dynasty. Since then, Myanmar has entered the Shan State period. Dongyu Dynasty (153 1 year-1752) 153 1 year was Ti Ying (1531year-1year. After that, Bayinlang ascended the throne, and his resources were exhausted due to repeated wars with Ayutthaya, the powerful kingdom of Thailand. Finally, Baku was occupied by Akka on 1599 and moved to Ava. Dongyu Kingdom finally fell at 1752. 1753, Alangpaya, a Burmese, appeared, driving away the Mongols who captured Awa at that time and establishing Daguangcheng. The Kampong Dynasty (1752-1885)1782-1819 was the autocratic period of Bo Wang. Because of its ambition to invade Thailand many times, Britain, which occupied India at that time, was worried about the possible threat from Myanmar. During the colonial period (1885-1948), the tension between Britain and Myanmar reached its peak in two wars: 1824-1826 and 1852. Britain won both wars, and finally captured stereotyped writing city, which was called Lower Burma. After the British entered Myanmar, the economy of Upper Myanmar also improved significantly. 1886, Britain won the third British-Burmese war again. At this time, Britain accepted Myanmar as a province of India and set the government in Yangon. During the British colonial rule, Myanmar's transportation and education were greatly improved. The British devoted themselves to developing waterways, which enabled countless ships to sail on the Irrawaddy River. Railways and highways have also been built and improved to make up for the shortage of waterways. At this time, a large number of Indian immigrants poured in, resulting in cheap labor and threatening the local economy. As a result, the Burmese people began to hate Indians, so that anti-Indian riots broke out on 1930. 1936, in the first and only election under British rule, Dr. Ba Maw was elected as the Prime Minister of the British-controlled government. 1937, Britain created a unique Burmese constitution, agreeing that the Burmese people can control their own internal affairs. During World War II, the Japanese army occupied Myanmar in May 1942 and established the executive government of Myanmar headed by Ba Maw. With the support of Japan, General Aung San, who opposed the British colonial government and longed for independence, organized the Myanmar Independent Volunteers. 1942 led the army to participate in the battle with the Japanese army, and then announced Myanmar's independence from Britain with the support of the Japanese army. 1943, Ba Maw and Aung San were invited to visit Japan and returned to China to reorganize the Myanmar government, and Aung San became the Minister of National Defense. From 65438 to 0944, Aung San began to support the United States and Britain and organized the "Anti-Fascist People's Freedom Alliance" to fight against the Japanese army. 1945 After Japan surrendered, Myanmar was declared independent and effective. After the war, Myanmar was still under British control, and Aung San was assassinated in July 1947. Aung San's successor, Tarkinu, continued to lead the independence movement. 19481After the British Parliament officially recognized Myanmar's independence on October 4, 1948, the Union of Myanmar was formally established.
