Synopsis

On May 7, 1885, at a time when Burma was about to fall to the British. Also in the King's Palace, the Lord of Navy (Nyunt Win) and Bo Kyaw Khaung (Kyaw Ye Aung) were trying to join forces with the French to defend themselves. A group of Bo Thurain (Kyaw Thu) and Bo Min Htin (Lwin Moe), loyal to Prince of Nyaungyan, were trying to defend their own kingdom without relying on anyone. At that time, there was a time of disunity and ethnic division, and the British took advantage of the illegal logging and tried to take over the country. Who fought to keep the Burmese state from falling under its rule? How to defend the country and the nation is a good film that will inspire patriotism.

gollark: > And just so its clear I am a minarchist I just think the government needs to do some shitI roughly agree with that. I'm just not sure that the specific set of stuff it needs to do includes phone lines and such.

gollark: You can have... multiple phone line companies? We do in lots of places, even.> you made it so why let anyone else use itThey can pay you for it.> In times of high darwinist selection, it doesn't matter what the current paradigms are.Um. No.

gollark: I was replying to BearcatBen with the "People who need them?" thing, but oh well, ye,s very edgy.

gollark: > Why so?I mean, for one thing, I care about... quality of life? general stability? Lots of things OTHER than just technology? For another, why would ancap magically improve advancement?

gollark: People who need them?
