Myanmar
Myanmar appears on the map from 1990 to today. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1990, it covered about 675,942 km².
One of the realms of Konbaung Burma. When Mon forces sacked Ava in 1752, a village chief named Aung Zeya rallied resistance, took the royal name Alaungpaya and reunified Burma within a decade. His sons were formidable conquerors: Hsinbyushin destroyed Ayutthaya in 1767 and beat back four Qing invasions, and Bodawpaya annexed Arakan in 1785, after which Burmese armies pushed into Manipur and Assam.
