Sawbwa
Saopha, Sao Pha, Chaofa, Jaofa, sawbwa, or saw-bwa (စော်ဘွား, pronounced ; Shan: ၸဝ်ႈၾႃႉ, literally meaning "lord of the heavens" or "lord of the sky") was a royal title used by the hereditary rulers of the semi-independent Shan States (Mong, Shan: မိူင်း, pronounced ) in what today is Eastern Myanmar (Burma). It may also be used for rulers of similar Tai/Dai states in neighbouring countries, notably including China's Yunnan Province.
