Pegu (Principia Moderni IV Map Game)

The Kingdom of Burma is a Bahmanid Vassal state in southern Burma.

Orgins
Pegu was a small, but prosperous kingdom in southern Burma, engaged in a few small turf wars with its neighbors, and some trade with the outside world, but not really enough to be a target. In 1450, the small kingdom was thrust into the larger 'cold war' between the Bahmanids and the Majapahit Empire, when a Majapahit fleet appeared of Pegu's coast, and quickly occupied the nation, beginning the Andaman War. The Bahmanids, along with Delhi and Bengal, the other major Indian Muslim states, saw this as an incursion into their mare nostrum, and responded by attacking the Majapahit, eventually pushing them past the Andaman islands. In the ensuing treaty, the Bahmanids were allowed to vassalize Pegu, which they declared the Kingdom of Burma.

A New Era
A local nobleman, Binnya Dala was made king two years after the end of the Andaman War, after the Bahmanid army had withdrawn. He began 'new era,' one where, with economic and mlitary assistance from the Bahmanids, Burma would become a great nation.

Goverment
To quote from the Bahmanid's 1454 post: " Ismail Shah will allow Burma to run most of its own affairs, just sending broad directives from Gulbarga for Binnya Dala to interpret as he wishes - so long as Binnya Dala provides gold and men, that is."
