3 unusual facts about Battle of Prome


Battle of Prome

With a large portion of the Burmese army dispersed at Prome, the British army led by Campbell advanced toward Ava unimpeded until they encountered a stockaded defense at Bagan.

The British army's subsequent march toward north threatened Ava, which led to peace negotiation by the Kingdom of Burma.

The battle of Prome was a land-based battle between the Kingdom of Burma and the British Empire that took place near the city of Prome, modern day Pyay, in 1825 as part of the First Anglo-Burmese War.
