Was Myanmar a territory of China before history?

No, there was only a vassal relationship between Myanmar and China in history.

1. During the Bagan Dynasty

In p>1271, Kublai Khan, a Mongolian, established the Yuan Dynasty in northern China. After the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan sent envoys to Bagan for surrender many times, but King Bagan ignored them. In 1277, Yuan soldiers attacked bhamo and withdrew because of the hot climate. Later, Yuan soldiers attacked Bagan many times.

in p>1279, when the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, the national strength increased greatly. In 1287, Yuan soldiers attacked Bagan country from Yunnan, and Bagan city was broken. Bagan country became a vassal of the Yuan Dynasty, and Narathikhobodi lost his throne. All the kings after him were puppets of the Yuan Dynasty.

After the Yuan Dynasty defeated Bagan, its territory began to split. Shan people took the opportunity to develop their power, and in 1368, they established Awa Kingdom in Awa (English: Ara) in eastern Myanmar. The Mongols also developed their power in southern Myanmar, with their capital in Martaban. In 1369, they moved their capital to Pogu and established the Pogu Kingdom.

after the founding of the two kingdoms, there was a war between the north and the south, and the territory of Myanmar was divided. The tribes of Wang Bang either surrendered to the Yuan and Ming Dynasties or bowed to Siam, which lasted for more than 25 years until the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty in China in the 153s.

2. During the Dongxu Dynasty

Dongxu was closely related to the Ming Dynasty in China. After moving the capital to Ava in 1635, it was also called Ava. In 1424 (the 22nd year of Yongle), the Ming Dynasty set up a department of propaganda and consolation in Diwula (that is, Dongxu).

in p>1425 (the first year of Hongxi) and 143 (the fifth year of Xuande), Dong Xu sent envoys to visit China twice. From 1582 to 1583, Mang Yingli invaded Yunnan and was repelled.

In p>1659 (16th year of Qing Shunzhi), Emperor Yongli of Nanming fled to Myanmar, and Myanmar was unable to resist Wu Sangui's attack, so it had to extradite Emperor Yongli in exchange for the withdrawal of the Qing army.

3. Kampong Dynasty

Kampong Dynasty is the last dynasty in Myanmar, which was founded by Yong Jiya, so it is also called Yong Yaya Dynasty. The Kampong dynasty not only unified the whole of Myanmar, but also used troops to expand its territory.

at the end of the 18th century (the late reign of emperor Qianlong of the Qing dynasty in China), there was a war between the Qing dynasty and Myanmar over the control of territory and resources in the border areas (the Qing-Myanmar war). The war ended with the signing of a contract between the two sides.

Qing-Myanmar War:

At the end of the 18th century, a war broke out between the Qing Dynasty and the Kampong Dynasty of Myanmar over the control of territory and resources in the border areas.

This war started with Myanmar invading Pu 'er area in China in winter of 1762, and the Qing army fought back in self-defense, and ended with the signing of an armistice contract on November 16th, 1769.

After seven years, although the Qing Dynasty achieved nominal submission from Myanmar, it failed to win the war. In the Qing Dynasty, both sides in Myanmar suffered heavy losses. Among the "perfect martial arts" of Emperor Qianlong, the war against Myanmar was the only one that was controversial. In his later years, Emperor Qianlong said, "It is not successful to levy Burma after eight wars in more than 5 years."

Some generals who participated in the Qing-Burma War witnessed the great power of firearms held by some Burmese soldiers and felt that their firearms technology was backward. After returning, he wrote to Emperor Qianlong, proposing to buy advanced guns from the West, hire western military technicians, copy guns and enhance his national strength.

However, influenced by the ancestral training of "riding and shooting is the foundation of building a state", Emperor Qianlong thought that the development of firearms would lead to the Eight Banners Army's dependence on firearms, which led to the relaxation of riding and shooting and cold weapon fighting skills after entering the customs, and its skills in this field were further relaxed, so he did not pay attention to it.

The war caused great political changes in Indochina Peninsula. When the Qing-Burma War broke out, Myanmar was at war with its historical arch-enemy, Siam. Just after Siam was destroyed, it was attacked by the Qing army.

Myanmar, which was empty at home, was forced to leave only 9, troops stationed in Siam, and the whole army returned home to resist the attack of the Qing army. Zheng Xin of Siam was thus able to defeat other separatist forces in China, repel Burmese soldiers and rebuild Siam. The Qing-Burma War caused a great change in Indo-China Peninsula. Myanmar was weakened by the war and Siam was restored to China.

Myanmar took the initiative to ask for tribute ten years after the war, and was re-incorporated into the tributary system in East Asia.
