AYEYAWADY Region was once included in the Mon Nya region, one of three Mon regions—Mon Ti, Mon Saand Mon Nya. Dagon and Dala were in the Mon Ti region; Thaton and Mottama were in the Mon Sa region; Pathein and Myaungmya were parts of the Mon Nya region. Despite being an area where significant Myanmar kings did not establish, the region has been rich in unique historical features. Although the lower part of Myanmar was called “RaMaNya” in the past, it is unknown when it was called. Only the name “RaMaNya” was first found in the very ancient chronicles of Siho (Chapter 76 of the Mahavamsa). King Alaung Mintayar, the founder of the Konbaung dynasty, organized the Mon people from the RaMaNya region to form the Third Myanmar Empire.
