On 29 November 1885, Thibaw Min, the last king of Burma and his senior queen, Supayalat was exile to Ratnagiri, India, a port city off the Arabian Sea after the victory of British Empire in the Third Anglo-Burmese War. The banishment was called Pataw Mu (Burmese: ပါတော်မူ; MLCTS: pattaumhu:, pronounced [pàtàʊ m̥ù]) which means taken away.
