502 _aAfter the British colonial occupation of Myanmar in 1886, the Shan State was administered separately from Myanmar proper. The feudal rule and affiliation to the British rule was adopted in place of the Myanmar kings with revenue assessment maintained in continuity. The Sanad appointment had asserted the role of the ruling British Order and subservience bound by the frame of the Sanad. The situation of the Northern Shan State was in essence the microcosm of the larger area of the Shan State at large. The administration of the North was an extension of the Shan State governance at large. Main authority was centred in the British rulers, but some local powers were delegated to the ethnic Shan Sawbwas and Shan officials down the hierarchy of towns, and villages. The economic pursuits were mainly agriculture in rice cultivation, and other cash crops, fruit plantations etc. Mineral resources abound in Northern Shan state such as lead, silver mines, ruby tracts of Mogok, life stock breeding etc. The social sector provided Theravada Buddhists faith and worship of the spirits existing side by side. Family matters such as marriage, novitiation were still traditional. Social lawsuits were arbitrated according to Dhammasat laws and the decision of the elders. Such environment perpetuated till 1942 when the British Colonial Administration was disrupted by the outbreak of the Second World War and occupation of British Myanmar by the Japanese occupation forces in 1942 ending the era of British domination.
