Wanmaw State, Administrative region in northern Myanmar
Located at coordinates 24.55°N and 97.116667°E, Wanmaw State encompasses mountainous terrain and river systems that influence regional transportation networks.
Founded in 1470, Wanmaw State maintained independence until 1772, when the Kingdom of Burma annexed the territory and replaced local saopha rulers with myowuns.
The region features multiple ethnic communities who maintain their distinct languages, religious practices, and traditional festivals throughout the calendar year.
Agriculture forms the primary economic activity, with residents cultivating crops and engaging in trade through local markets across the mountainous landscape.
The name Wanmaw originates from Shan language meaning village of pots, indicating the historical connection to pottery production in this area.
