Nandabayin

Nanda , Nanda Bayin or Nandabayin , was the fourth sovereign of the Dynastie Taungû of the Myanmar of 1581 with 1599. It succeeded his father Bayinnaung.

Once on the throne, Nandabayin had to deal with rebellion carried out by his/her uncle, the viceroy of Inwa. It came to end, but could not take again the Siam, which had ceased paying its tribute in the interval (1584). Several Burmese armies were overcome by Naresuan Large the (1555-1605) in the valley of the Chao Phraya.

The Siamese ones also supported a revolt in the south of Burma. In 1595, Nandabayin even had to defend its capital Pégou against a Siamese attack.

Another revolt, this time fomented by his/her brothers (viceroys of Taungû, Pyay and Inwa), began in 1599. His/her brothers obtained the support of the king of Arakan and of Philippe de Brito, besieged Pégou and made captive Nandabayin.

According to certain authors, Nandabayin " died of laughing by hearing mouth of an Italian merchant that the République of Venice was a free state which did not have a roi."
