San José Las Flores (or Las Flores) is a district and city in Chalatenango Department, El Salvador. It played an important and strategic role during the Salvadoran Civil War.  The town was one of the first settlements to be repopulated by refugees who had been driven away by government bombing during the early 1980s.  In 1986, in defiance of the military, the civilian population returned to reconstruct the village.  This was part of a campaign of a number of towns throughout northern El Salvador, with the assistance of humanitarian groups in North America and Europe, to resist the militarization of the area and prevent continued bombing during the war.  For this reason, a number of U.S. cities became sister cities with Salvadoran towns to demonstrate support for the civilians during the war.  Nearby towns that were also in this movement include Arcatao and Guarjila, which were repopulated in 1987.

Shwenankyawshin
Shwenankyawshin Narapati (Burmese: ရွှေနန်းကြော့ရှင် နရပတိ, pronounced [ʃwè náɰ̃ tɕɔ̰ ʃɪ̀ɰ̃ nəɹa̰pətḭ], Shan: Sao Kyaw Haw Hkam; 28 July 1476 – 14 March 1527) was king of Ava from 1501 to 1527. His reign saw the disintegration of the Ava Kingdom. He spent much of his reign fighting back the attacks from the Confederation of Shan States. But his efforts ultimately proved unsuccessful. The king died fighting while defending his capital from Confederation attacks, after which Ava Kingdom was taken over by the Confederation.

Kingdom of Ava
The Ava Kingdom (Burmese: အင်းဝပြည်, pronounced [ʔɪ́ɰ̃wa̰ kʰɪʔ]; INN-wa pyi) also known as Inwa Kingdom or Kingdom of Ava was the dominant kingdom that ruled upper Burma (Myanmar) from 1365 to 1555. Founded in 1365, the kingdom was the successor state to the petty kingdoms of Myinsaing, Pinya and Sagaing that had ruled central Burma since the collapse of the Pagan Kingdom in the late 13th century.

Like the small kingdoms that preceded it, Ava may have been led by Bamarised Shan kings who claimed descent from the kings of Pagan. Scholars debate that the Shan ethnicity of Avan kings comes from mistranslation, particularly from a record of the Avan kings' ancestors ruling a Shan village in central Burma prior to their rise or prominence.
