502 _aThis dissertation is an attempt to investigate the British administration of Lower Myanmar from 1824 to 1885. The whole of Lower Myanmar fell under the British after the two Anglo-Myanmar War, the First War occured in 1824 ending with the Treaty of Yandabo by which Myanmar had to cede Rakhine and Taninthayi to the British. The Second War was fought in 1852 after which Myanmar had to give up Mottama and Bago. Then in 1862 Rakhine, Taninthayi, Bago provinces were combined and governed together by the Chief Commissioner. During the period from 1824 to 1885 Rakhine and Taninthayi provinces was ruled by the Commissioner under the control of Governor of India. They took many years in their attempts to restore law and order in Lower Myanmar, as there Were outbreaks of political unrest and armed struggles in Rakhine and Taninthayi Provinces. Due to the political instabilities, the population was scarce and the development was lagged in the Taninthayi Provinces. After the annexation of Bago in 1852 it was found that feudal system was still prevailing even under the rule of British after the Second Anglo-Myanmar War. Bago Province was ruled under the control of Governor General of India. The legislative power was under the control of Governor General. The main undertaking of the British was law and order restoration. Trustworthy and reliable servicemen were appointed. The important departments and divisions were directly supervised by the British. The collection of taxes in Rakhine, Taninthayi and Bago Provinces under the British rule is also described in conjunction of the tax system practised by Myanmar kings.
