Min Bin
Min Bin ((ビルマ語:မင်းပင်), (:mɪ́ɴ bɪ̀ɴ), Arakanese pronunciation: (:máɴ bàɴ); also known as Min Pa-Gyi (မင်းပါကြီး, (:mɪ́ɴ bàjí), Arakanese pronunciation: (:máɴ bà ɡɹí)); 1493–1554) was king of Arakan from 1531 to 1554, "whose reign witnessed the country's emergence as a major power".〔Seekins 2006: 295〕 Aided by Portuguese mercenaries and their firearms, his powerful navy and army pushed the boundaries of the kingdom deep into Bengal, where coins bearing his name and styling him sultan were struck, and even interfered in the affairs of mainland Burma.〔
After his initial military successes against Bengal and Tripura (1532–34), Min Bin began to regard himself "as a world conqueror or ''cakravartin''", and in commemoration of his victory in Bengal he built the Shitthaung Temple, one of the premier Buddhist pagodas of Mrauk-U.〔 His expansionist drive was to run into serious obstacles however. His control of Bengal beyond Chittagong was largely nominal and he, like the sultans of Bengal before him, never solved Tripuri raids into Bengal. Moreover, his interference in Lower Burma (1542) against Toungoo provoked Toungoo invasions in (1545–47) that nearly toppled his regime. He survived the invasions and later provided military aid to Ava, hoping to stop Toungoo's advance into Upper Burma.
The king died in January 1554, and was succeeded by his eldest son and heir apparent Min Dikkha. His legacy lived on. The defensive works he built up throughout the kingdom would deter another Toungoo invasion until 1580. He is also credited with creating a naval fleet that dominated the Bay of Bengal, which in the following century would enable Arakan to control the entire 1600-km coastline from the Sundarbans to the Gulf of Martaban.〔Topich, Leitich 2013: 21〕 His 22-year reign transformed Mrauk-U into a major regional power, a status which Mrauk-U would maintain well into the second half of the 17th century.
==Early life==
The future king was born Min Pa (မင်းပါ) to Crown Prince Raza of Mrauk-U and Princess Saw Nandi in 1493. His parents were first cousins; his mother was a daughter of Raza's maternal uncle.〔Sandamala Linkara Vol. 2 1999: 26–27〕 He had at least one younger brother named Min Aung Hla, and many half-siblings. In 1502, his grandfather King Salingathu died, and his father succeeded the throne. As king, his father raised three new queens, and made his mother just a minor queen. A few years later, the king appointed Min Pa as a general in the army.〔
