The Pagan Kingdom of Burma (Myanmar)

The Pagan Kingdom, located in present-day Myanmar, flourished from the 9th to the 13th centuries. It was the first kingdom to unify the regions that now make up Myanmar, marking the beginning of Burmese culture, language, and Theravada Buddhism as the dominant religion. The kingdom's capital, Bagan, became a center for Buddhist scholarship and is renowned for its stunning array of thousands of Buddhist temples, pagodas, and stupas. The architectural and cultural legacy of Pagan continues to influence Myanmar's culture today.
