Whakakiia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I te 2 o Poutu-te-rangi 1962, ko te ope taua i arahina e General Ne Win
i riro te mana o Burma mā tētahi coup d'état, ā, i raro tonu te kāwanatanga i te mana ā-tika, ā-kore rānei o te hōia mai i taua wā. I waenga i te 1962 me te 1974, i whakahaeretia a Myanmar e te kaunihera hurihuri i raro i te rangatira. Tata ki nga waahanga katoa o te hapori (tauhokohoko, papaho, whakaputa) i whakamanahia, i whakahaerehia ranei e te kawanatanga i raro i te huarahi Burmese ki te Socialism, i whakakotahi i te whakamana whenua me te whakamahere matua.
