 Main article: Bagan period

 There is no definitive historical record of the early Bagan dynasty, only oral histories, and it was not until the reign of Anawrahta that precise historical evidence was discovered. Due to Anawrahta's conquest, the kingdom of Bagan rose from a feudal lord to an emperor (empire). During the reign of his successor, King Saw Lu, the situation in the country worsened. During the reigns of kings such as Alaung Si Thu, the country regained its strength.

 Bagan Conclusion

 During the reigns of the next king, Alaung Si Thu, Bagan's power waned. An umbrella king was assassinated by enemies on the border. An angry king like Narathihapat appeared. In 1287, the Mongols invaded and forced Narathihapat to flee Bagan, and Bagan's influence waned. Kublai Khan, the Mongol king, withdrew his troops because of Shindi's diplomatic skills. From then on, King Bagan was only a figurehead and the real influential people were the three Shan brothers.
