After the fall of Pagan in 1287, the northwestern parts of Upper Myanmar came under the [[Sagaing Kingdom]] (1315–1364) ruled by Burmanized [[Shan people|Shan]] kings. The area was ruled by the kings of [[Ava Kingdom|Ava]] from 1364 to 1555 and the kings of [[Taungoo Dynasty|Taungoo]] from 1555 to 1752. [[Konbaung Dynasty]] (1752–1885), founded by king [[Alaungpaya]] in [[Shwebo]], became the last Burmese dynasty before the [[British Empire|British]] conquest of Upper Burma in 1885. The area became Sagaing Division after the Burmese independence in January 1948.{{Citation needed|date=August 2021}}
