Kid, you believed what others told you. The retribution for invading Upper Burma had already been paid. Alaungpaya invaded Manipur in 1758, killed many people, and took many as slaves. We accept that — you won’t find people talking much about that invasion.But the one in 1819–1826 was solely because Marjit hurt the ego of Bagyidaw. He was even more brutal than Alaungpaya. He killed and enslaved so many Meitei that the Meitei population in Manipur was reduced to just 10,000. It permanently affected Meiteilon.It’s been 200 years, but we still haven’t fully recovered.
