Mjanmar is governed by a military hunt that created one of the greatest humanitarian crises
Mjanmar hit Armageddon on Friday earthquake 7.7 power per Richter. Scenes of destruction, horror and horror toured the world. But the inhabitants of that exotic state in Southeast Asia are used to troubles and problems.
Mjanmar (formerly known as Burma) as well as numerous other countries around the world, gained independence in the echo of decolonization that occurred after World War II, when the cried and demolished Western colonial forces had no longer had the strength or money to enslave a good part of the world.
Although Mjanmar declared independence from the British Empire as a democratic state in 1948, he soon went through the Golgotha to the dictatorial and military regime, which is still characteristic of the states today, which separated from Paris and London in the middle of the last century.
The first military hunt came to power in 1958, when the state was overcome by a general not Win on the pretext that a solid dictatorship was the only way to keep many and different religious and ethnic groups together.
The military hunt remained in power until 2011. The ethnic diversity and dictatorship have transformed mejanmar into one of the most brutal countries in the world and created one of the longest civil wars in history.
Specifically, the state has been with a changed intensity in the civil war from the declaration of independence in 1948. The time of hope occurred in 2011. When a civilian government was selected in the election, which lasted for ten years.
The current chaos, which was only worse, was created after the military coup on February 1, 2021, when the Mjanmar army, known as Tatmadaw and led by General Mina Auto Hlasing, took power in the country and declared a state of emergency.
The army overturned a civilian authority led by the National Union Party for Democracy (NLD) and President Win Myint. After a coup three years ago, he again escalated the civil war.
Two clear currents have been reached today, the already mentioned Tatmadaw and the Pro-Democratic groups such as the National Federation for National Democracy (CDM) and People’s Defense Forces (PDF).
The conflict took over 3000 lives and displaced 1.6 million people. Military Hunt has an absolute advantage in weapons and technique, while pro-democratic forces are caught up in every possible way.

At the impact of the army is a special ethnic group of Rohingya practicing Islam. It is important to note that the military Hunt is advocating for Buddhist nationalism. The situation escalated in 2017. When the army initiated numerous blows after an attack by the Rohingya Armed group called Arsa to the police stations.
The attacks of the army led to the expulsion of 700,000 Muslims to Bangladesh. But not only Muslims are on the impact of Buddhist nationalists. Thus, on March 18, 2025, the military Hunt burned the cathedral of St. Patrick in Banmawa in the north of the country.
The international community, including the UN, the EU, the US and other countries, condemned the coup and tried to introduce sanctions, but the Mjanmar army was able to retain control with the help of China and Russia, which provided military and political support.
The sanctions have led to shortages that have been particularly expressed right now after a terrible earthquake. Thus, volunteers and rescue services have discovered that they have been trapped under the ruins with bare hands because of the lack of heavy machines.
