Shwe Nan Shin (Burmese: ရွှေနန်းရှင်, pronounced [ʃwè náɴ ʃɪ̀ɴ]) was governor of Myinsaing from c. 1344 to c. 1386. He was the eldest sibling of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava. He became governor of Myinsaing c. 1344 during the Pinya period.[note 1] He was no longer governor of Myinsaing, certainly by 1390, and probably by 1386.[note 2]

Notes
- ↑ Chronicles (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 403) say that he was appointed governor in 704 ME (29 March 1342 to 28 March 1343) by King Uzana I of Pinya. But the Arakanese chronicle Rakhine Razawin Thit (Sandamala Linkara Vol. 1 1999: 181) says the family of Min Shin Saw left Launggyet for Pinya in 705 ME (29 March 1343 to 28 March 1344). According to a contemporary inscription, (Than Tun 1959: 124), Kyawswa I of Pinya took over the kingdom from then regent Sithu, also viceroy of Myinsaing.
- ↑ Chronicles do not explicitly say when he died. (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 202) and (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 429–430) list Thray Sithu as governor of Myinsaing, in the 1390−1391 dry season campaign in the Forty Years' War. This means Shwe Nan Shin was no longer governor of Myinsaing, and most probably because he had died by then. Furthermore, earlier chronicle reporting (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 196, 198) and (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 417–418, 422) suggests that Shwe Nan Shin was no longer governor in 1386. (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 198) and (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 422) say that an unnamed lord of Myinsaing as a regimental commander went to the front in the second (1386–1387) campaign. It was quite unlikely that Shwe Nan Shin, then at least 64 years old, would have gone to the front as frontline commander. Indeed, per (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 196) and (Hmannan Vol. 1 2003: 417–418), no lord of Myinsaing went to the front in the first (1385–1386) campaign.
