Burma is a nation in Southeast Asia now officially called the Union of Myanmar. It is nestled among other nations such as China, Laos, and India. While many religions are practiced in Burma, things can be difficult for citizens who are not Buddhist. Burma has had a turbulent history, from the Anglo-Burmese wars, to finally becoming a province of British India until its independence in 1948. Burmese stamp history begins in 1824 and was well organized under British rule for the next 120 years. Many are also interested in the stamps issued in Burma during WW2 under Japanese occupation.
