Burmese Kingdom
The Burmese Kingdom, ruled by the Konbaung Dynasty, was a dominant power in Southeast Asia until its annexation by the British in 1885. Burmese mythology featured the Nats, spirits believed to inhabit natural objects, and mythical creatures like the Hintha, symbolizing prosperity.Throughout this period, Burmese cultural and religious identity remained strong, with Buddhism playing a central role in daily life. The kingdom's defeat by the British was a turning point, but its rich mythology and traditions endured.
