King Bagyidaw (died October 1846) was king of the Konbaung Dynasty from 1819 to 1837. He was defeated in the First Anglo-Burmese War (1824-1826), losing Arakan (now spelt Rakhine) and Tenassarim (now spelt Taninthayi). He was son of King Bodawpaya. Under the guidance of General Mahabandoola, he pursued a policy of expansionism, conquering Assam and Manipur and making them tributaries of the kingdom. The British consequently pursued war, beginning 5 March 1824, driving the Burman forces from Assam, Rakhine, and Manipur. In 24 February 1826, Bagyidaw signed the Treaty of Yandaboo, ending war.
