King Sinbyushin (A.D 1763-76) was the third king of the Alaungpaya. or Konbaung dynasty in Myanmar. He pursued a policy of expansion at the expense of practically all his neighbours.SinphyushinminSinbyushin's most important single project was the subjugation of Siam (now Thailand).

 In 1764 he campaigned eastward. taking Chiang Mai (Chiengmai) and Vientiane before invading the Chao Phraya River valley. When the Siamese capital of Ayutthaya fell in April 1767. he deported thousands of prisoners to Myanmar.

According to the Siamese chronicles. "the King of Hanthawaddy [Bayinnaung] waged war like a monarch. but the King of Inwa [Sinbyushin] like a robber." Myanmar control of Siam. however. was very brief; the Siamese general Taksin soon expelled Sinbyushin's armies. Not content with conquering Siam. Sinbyushin invaded the Hindu kingdom of Manipur (in present-day Manipur state. India) three times for slaves and plunder. When the king claimed suzerainty over the country in the third invasion. he could then threaten British India.

The greatest threat to Sinbyushin's power came from China. Myanmar aggressiveness in the Shan states. Laos. and Chiang Mai (then the capital of the kingdom of Lan Na) led the emperor of China to launch four expeditions against Myanmar in 1765-69. all of which were defeated by Sinbyushin. In 1769 a treaty was signed that provided for trade and diplomatic missions between the two countries.

In 1773 a revolt broke out in southern Myanmar. which Sinbyushin suppressed. On his death three years later. he was succeeded by his son. Singu Min.
