Thibaw min (1 gennaio 1859 – 19 dicembre 1916) è stato l'ultimo re della dinastia di Konbaung di Birmania (Myanmar) e anche l'ultimo della storia birmana. Il suo regno terminò quando la Birmania fu sconfitta dalle forze dell'Impero britannico nella Terza guerra anglo-birmana, il 29 novembre 1885, prima della sua annessione ufficiale il 1° gennaio 1886. Dopo aver abdicato il trono, Thibaw, sua moglie Supayalat e due figlie infanti furono esiliate a Ratnagiri, India, una città portuale al largo del Mar Arabico. Supayalat (Mandalay, 13 dicembre 1859 – Mandalay, 24 novembre 1925) è stata l'ultima regina della Birmania, nata a Mandalay (1878–1885)

Thibaw Min (1 January 1859 – 19 December 1916) was the last king of the Konbaung dynasty of Burma (Myanmar) and also the last in Burmese history. His reign ended when Burma was defeated by the forces of the British Empire in the Third Anglo-Burmese War, on 29 November 1885, prior to its official annexation on 1 January 1886. After abdicating the throne, Thibaw, his wife Supayalat and two infant daughters were exiled to Ratnagiri, India, a port city off the Arabian Sea. Supayalat (13 December 1859 – 24 November 1925) was the last queen of Burma who reigned in Mandalay (1878–1885), born to King Mindon Min and Queen of Alenandaw. Their reign lasted just seven years when Thibaw Min was defeated in the Third Anglo-Burmese War and forced to abdicate by the British in 1885. On 25 November 1885 they were taken away in a covered carriage, leaving Mandalay Palace by the southern gate of the walled city along the streets lined by British soldiers and their wailing subjects, to the River Irrawaddy where a steamboat awaited. Thibaw was 27 and Supayalat 26. After years of exile in India, Supayalat returned to Rangoon in 1919. She died six years later, in 1925 - shortly before her 66th birthday. Although the colonial government declared the day of her funeral a national holiday, the royal family's request for her to be buried in Mandalay was also refused. Her funeral was, however, held with pomp and ceremony as befitted a Burmese queen. Supayalat lies buried at the foot of the Shwedagon Pagoda in Kandawmin Gardens between the tombs of Aung San Suu Kyi's mother Khin Kyi and the former UN Secretary General U Thant.
