Ramree Island
According to the Arakanese chronicles, in 1774, twelve villages on Ramree Island revolted against the heavy taxes imposed by King Sanda Thumana. The rebels were initially led by four generals - Sanay Phyu, Lar Phyu, Maung Htwe, and Aung Son (Sanda Thaditha) - but Aung Son eventually eliminated the others and assumed sole command of the army.
