In the fifth century BC the Pyu, a Tibeto-Burman tribe arrive in present-day Burma. Around 0 the Pyu rule includes large parts of the area (see map). Another tribe, subordiante to the Pyu, named the Burmese, establish in 849 Burmese Pagan Kingdom. The other tribes, including the Pyu and the Mon, move to the north of the country. In 1287 Pagan is liquidated by Mongolian invadors and the state desintegrates in divided territories dependent from China. These territories unite in 1582 into the Kingdom of Burma under the Toungboo dinasty, but this doesn't develop into a stable country. Since 1752 Burma is more or less a really united country under the Konbaung dinasty of king Alaungpaya.
