History
Möng Nai was founded in 1223 or 1318. Northern Thai chronicles claim that the state was founded in 1318 by Khun Khüa, a son of Mangrai, and ruled as a vassal state of Lan Na in the coming centuries.[3] However, Shan histories claim that it was conquered by Sam Long Hpa in 1223, and a branch of the "old Möng Mi line" were put in charge of the state as tributaries of Möng Mao. The native records of the state were lost in various fires.[4]
The state's ritual name was Saturambha.[5]
In later centuries, Möng Nai included the substates of Kengtawng[1] and Kenghkam. The latter was annexed in 1882.[citation needed]
