Thalun(Burmese:သာလွန်မင်း,pronounced[θàlʊ̀ɰ̃];17 June 1584 – 27 August 1648) was the eighth king ofToungoo dynastyofBurma(Myanmar). During his 19-year reign, Thalun successfully rebuilt the war-torn country which had been under constant warfare for nearly a century since the 1530s. Thalun instituted many administrative reforms and rebuilt the economy of the kingdom.
In 1608, Anaukpetlun capturedPromeand made Thalun the governor of Prome. In 1628, Anaukpetlun was murdered by his own sonMinyedeippawho made himself king. Thalun was then on his campaigns against the Shans at Kengtung with his brotherMinye Kyawswa II,the governor of Ava. However, the death of Anaukpetlun forced the two to return to Pegu to claim the throne from the unlawful king and to counter the opportunisticArakaneseinvasions. Thalun became the center of rallying against Minyedaikpa and was proclaimed the crown prince.
In 1630, Thalun and Minye Kyawswa were able to takePeguand executed Minyedeippa.[6]: 218 At Pegu, there was an assassination attempt by aMonon King Thalun, which resulted in the massacre of the Mons.
