Taungoo led by Bayinnaung is a custom civilization mod by EmeraldRange with contributions from Chrisy15, DarthKyofu and Francesca.

This mod requires BNW and, if used together with Sukritact's Burma, renames it to Bagan, alongside giving it a new city list.

Overview

Taungoo

The Taungoo Empire was the second dynasty of Burma and seated its power primarily in lower Burma Proper at first in the town of Taungoo, but later in the city of Bago. It was a very militaristic dynasty: extending the reach and influence of Burma to all of the Indochinese peninsula and left a strong impact on the legal and social systems of Indochina. It is also known as the First Taungoo Dynasty, the Taungoo-Hanthawaddy Period, or the Taungoo Period

Bayinnaung

Bayinnaung Kyawhtin Nawratha was the second king of the Taungoo Dynasty and succeeded his brother-in-law Tabinshwehti after Tabinshwehti had been assassinated. He found himself a king without a kingdom as the coup had undermined Tabinshwehti's re-unification of Burma.

Dawn of Man

Bayinnaung Kyawhtin Nawratha, your legacy in Indochina is unparalleled. After your brother-in-law's death, you restored the lands of the Taungoo Empire within 2 years, and then continued on your historic conquest of Siam, Lan Na, Lan Xang and much more in the 12 years that followed. Your leadership brought into existence the largest contiguous empire in the history of Southeast Asia. No other man could have caused this explosion of human energy. Your military prowess brought forth the majesty of Burma and the respect for your person to the rest of Indochina for centuries to come. Your reign saw the establishment of a mutli-ethnic polity, standardised orthodox Theravada Buddhism,  and the adoption of the Burmese calendar and Burmese law throughout Indochina. The lasting political and cultural impacts of the Taungoo Dynasty can never be forgotten.

O Great Royal King of Burma, the people of your lands long for your return. Will you once again bring forth prosperity through order? Will you incite another explosion of military might? Will you build a civilization that can stand the test of time?

Introduction: "Gaze your awe on this empire and its founder; I am Bayinnaung Kyawhtin Nawratha."

Introduction: "Welcome to the Burmese Empire. I am Bayinnaung Kyawhtin Nawratha, what do you bring to the Universal Ruler?"

Defeat: "Impossible! This cannot be! I will have myself exiled to Siam!"

Defeat: "You may defeat me, but my successors will return to re-establish Burma!"

Construct the Gates of Bago

Your empire is growing strong, but it hinges itself on your relations with the vassal rulers of your various puppet states. Without an institution behind it, the empire may collapse.
