Narapati Prome
Edit Profile
Career
Bayin Htwe escaped after the Confederation"s leader Sawlon was assassinated by his ministers, and returned to Prome (Pyay), c. May 1533. Narapati remained a nominal vassal to Confederation controlled Ava. Although his authority did not extend beyond the immediate region around Prome, he became ensnarled in the Toungoo–Hanthawaddy War (1534-1541).
Narapati provided shelter to the fleeing Hanthawaddy troops in 1538-1539.
When Toungoo troops attacked a heavily fortified Prome, Narapati asked for help from the Confederation in Ava. The Confederation troops broke the siege, but refused to follow up on the retreating Toungoo armies.
He was succeeded by his half-brother Minkhaung.
