1584 CE
The ambitious Bayinnaung had built an empire too large to govern.
His son and successor Nanda Bayin, upon coming to the throne of Toungoo in 1581, had been faced with a rebellion of his uncle, the viceroy of Ava, whom he had defeated three years later.
Lacking neither energy nor initiative, Nanda Bayin in December 1584 marches into Siam, which had been a vassal of his father, to subjugate the Siamese patriot Naresuan.
