A)Burmese
B)Bengal
C)British
D)Dutch

Answer 1

Hint: The Ahom kingdom was a late medieval kingdom in the Brahmaputra Valley in Assam. It is well known and remembered for maintaining its sovereignty for nearly 600 years and successfully repelling against Mughal expansion and acquisition in Northeast India.

Complete answer: Prince Chaolung Sukapha was the founder of Ahom Dynasty of Assam, his origins lie within south China’s Yunnan provision from a town called Mong Mao Lung and entered the Brahmaputra valley in 1228, with his 9000 companions.
Although the kingdom came to be called the Ahom kingdom in the colonial and upcoming times, it was largely multi-ethnic, and the majority of people from different ethnic groups became a segment of the Ahom population due to the process known as Ahomization. The expansion was so vast and so prompt that the Atomization process could not keep pace and the Ahoms became outnumbered in their kingdom Hence, leading in an alteration in the character of the kingdom. The Tai-Ahom people constituted less than 10% of the population toward the end of the kingdom. The identity of the Ahom people in this kingdom was flexible, with the king controlling who belonged to it and who did not.
 The dynasty survived till 1826 CE and was weakened with the rise of Moamoria rebellion eventually leading to the invasion of Assam by Burmese. The Ahom sought refuge from the British to retaliate the Burmese and ended up signing the treaty of Yandabo.
Options B, C, D can be easily eliminated.
Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.

Note: The treaty of Yandabo ended the first Anglo-Burmese war over the Ahom kingdom ( present-day Assam) on 5th March 1824, two years after the war broke out.
