Ramathibodi I, while still just a provincial governor who owed allegiance to the kingdom of Sukhothai, had raised an army to retake the strategically important trading ports of Mergui and Tenasserim which had been occupied by the Burmese.
Ramathibodi had himself proclaimed king of Ayutthaya in 1350 and consolidated his hold on power by embarking on an expansionist foreign policy, warring with Chiang Mai (also known as Lan Na) and the declining Khmer Empire, invading Cambodia in 1352, as well as accepting the reluctant vassalage of Sukhothai.
While Ramathibodi I was planting the seeds of future greatness in Ayutthaya, farther to the north another state was being forged from the heat of a series of conquests which set it upon a path that would ultimately lead to a devastating clash with Thailand.
