Secondly, the political turmoil after its independence was also an important reason for the separatist. After independence in 1948, Myanmar experienced numerous political upheavals and military coups. In 1988, demonstrations broke out across Myanmar as the economic situation deteriorated. On September 18 of the same year, the military personnel led by Defense Minister General Su Mao took over the power, established the "National Committee for the Restoration of Law and Order", and announced the abolition of the Constitution and the dissolution of the people's parliament and the state power. Such political instability provides the soil for the separation of ethnic and local armed groups. Finally, the historical ethnic problems are also an important factor in the separation of ethnic local armed organizations. Historically, the northern region of Myanmar was once the territory of multiple kingdoms and Shan states, with frequent wars and conflicts over territory. Moreover, the region has also been one of the centers of the drug trade, which further aggravates the chaos and instability in the region. Cultural and ethnic factors are also an important cause of the conflict in northern Myanmar. The northern region of Myanmar has multiple ethnic groups and languages with their own traditional cultures, customs and social structures. Due to historical and realistic reasons, there are some contradictions and conflicts between these ethnic groups, which provides conditions for the separation of ethnic local armed groups. #peace #Burma
