=== Myanmar === In Myanmar (Burma), since the [[Bagan|Pagan]] era of 11th century, each and every single one of the royal family received the title of ''Myosa'' (also ''Myoza''), literally means chief of town or territory, which is equivalent to the title of Duke. All royals were given the honor to possess at least one territory by the King. They all were mostly called by their possessions. For instance, Burma's last king, [[King Thibaw]] was called by his possession, when he was a prince, of a town Thibaw (Hsipaw in [[Shan State]]).<ref>{{cite book |title=United States Congressional Serial Set |year=1977 |publisher=U.S. Government Printing Office |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2i08AQAAMAAJ&q=myosa+duke&pg=RA10-PA39 |language=en}}{{pb}}{{cite book |last1=Murdoch |first1=William Gordon Burn |title=From Edinburgh to India & Burmah |year=1908 |publisher=G.
