Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    OnJune 18, 1989, the Burmese Military junta officially changed the English version of the country's name from Burma to Myanmar, and changed the English versions of many place names in the country along with it, such as its former capital city from Rangoon to Yangon.  Hope this helps and good luck.
