Takayutpi
last king of the Kingdom of Hanthawaddy
| Bio | Thushin Takayutpi, also called Patira Rāja (ပတိရရာဇာ) was king of Hanthawaddy Pegu from 1526 to 1539. At his accession, the 15-year-old inherited the most prosperous and powerful kingdom of all post-Pagan kingdoms. But he never had control of his vassals who scarcely acknowledged him. A dozen years later, due to the young king's inexperience and mismanagement, the Mon-speaking kingdom founded in 1287 fell to a smaller Toungoo.2 |
