Myanmar, officially the Union of Myanmar),
is the largest country in geographical area in mainland Southeast
Asia. Also known as Burma or the Union
of Burma by bodies and states which do not recognize the
ruling military junta, it is bordered by the People's Republic of
China on the north, Laos on the east, Thailand on the southeast,
Bangladesh on the west, and India on the northwest, with the Andaman
Sea to the south, and the Bay of Bengal to the southwest. One-third
of Myanmar's total perimeter, 1,930 km (1,199 mi), forms an uninterrupted
coastline.
Myanmar's diverse population has played a major
role in defining its politics, its history, and its demographics
in modern times. Its political system remains under the tight control
of the State Peace and Development Council, the military government
led by Senior General Than Shwe since 1992. Colonised as part of
the British Empire until 1948, Myanmar continues to struggle to
mend its ethnic tensions, and overcome coups d'état. The country's
culture, heavily influenced by regional neighbours, is based on
a unique form of Buddhism intertwined with local elements.
