Union Of The States AND Tribes

Myanmar is closely connected to her neighbouring countries: Thailand in the East, India in the West, Malaysia in the South, China in the North-east and Tibet in the North. Its topography consists of mountains, valleys, streams, rivers and wetlands.

}Seven collective states represent the eight main ethnic groups: Shan, Kachin, Kayin, Kayah, Chin, Mon, Bamar and Rakhine, each with numerous sub-groups, or tribes. The races – and languages – represented by these tribes are also vastly diverse.
