Myanmar formerly called Burma started its history around 250 BC.

According to archeological confirmations, the first kingdom of Mon Suwarnabhumi was founded around the port of Thaton approximately in 250 BC and the Mon established their civilizations in Ayeyarwady Delta and Tanintharyi in lower Myanmar. From the 1st to 9th century AD, Takaung, Beikthano, Sriksetra, and Hanlingyi cities were founded successively by Pyu along the Ayeyarwaddy valley in central Myanmar.

At 4th century , Rakhine State was founded at the west coastline of Myanmar by Rakhine tribe. There were three Myanmar Empires in the history .The First Myanmar Empire was founded by King Anawratha (1044 -1077 AD), the greatest king ever in the history, in 1044 AD by unifying all city states into a Kingdom. It was called The Great Myanmar Empire, the Bagan. The fall of Bagan Empire was about 14th century AD.

In the middle of the 16th Century The Second Myanmar Empire, the Hanthawady which was the greatest and biggest Empire within region, was established in 1551 AD by Kind Bayintnaung(1551-1581AD) and it was last till 1581. And the Third Myanmar Empire, the Konbaung , was founded by King Alaung Phaya in 1752 to 1760 AD. Started from 1825, 1852 and 1885 AD, Myanmar had three wars with British and fallen under British colony over 100 years. In 1942, Japanese ruled the country and regained its seat by help of Alliance in 1945. In 1948 January 4th, It was declared as a Independent Country to become present Myanmar.

Flora & Fauna Myanmar is rich in nature, the diversity of Flora and Fauna and it is rapidly becoming a new and exhilarating Eco-tourism destination for both Asia and the world. Myanmar is the largest peninsular country in Southeast Asia and the only country possessing snow-capped mountain.
