King Tharrawaddy ( Burmese သာယာဝတီ မင္း; * 1786, † 1846) was ruler of Burma and was a member of the Konbaung Dynasty.

Tharrawaddy was the 8th king of the Konbaung dynasty, by replacing his brother Bagyidaw ( 1819-1837 ), who had signed the humiliating Treaty of view by Burmese Yandabo who freed the provinces of Arakan and Tenasserim. Tharrawaddy rejected this agreement after his accession back immediately and also rejected further negotiations about it with the appropriate authorities in India. Tharrawaddy wanted, however, negotiate directly with representatives of the United Kingdom. The British government officials in the capital of Amarapura, at that time in charge of Burma, was forced in June 1837 departure. Tharrawaddy fought against 1838 to speak with his successor, as this in turn was only a representative of the Indian Governor General. 1840 moved the British government withdrew their ambassadors and sat diplomatic relations for a decade from.
