This music is about our country that we Love. It talks about the old past that Burma burned our Home. The people keep running around the valley. Our rice that we grew was taken by the Burmese soldiers. The people also sing about our river that is beautiful. We love our country.

Economy

This is old Karenni money that people used.Now, they don’t use that money anymore.They use Thai money to buy stuff.

Food

Here are different types of Karenni food. This is Karenni art about how people carried the water from the river to water the plants. These women are wearing old clothes for farming. Now people don’t wear clothes like this anymore.

Mountains and Land

This is how we live. Some people use their land to grow crops. Some people had their own land to grow food and farm. Their land is away from their home. So, sometimes they just sleep over in a hut.

Geography

Karenni (Kayah) State is located in the eastern part of Myanmar. The relief of Karenni (Kayah) State is mountainous with the Dawna Range and the Karen Hills also known as "Karenni-Karen" Mountains separated by the Salween River as it flows through Karenni (Kayah) State. Balu Chaung, called Nam Pilu in local language, flows from Inle Lake and converges with the Salween in southern Karenni (Kayah) State.

Here are Karenni, Karen, and Burma flags.

A place I would like to visit in the future:

I would like to visit the country of Korea. Korea has very beautiful places. I like the way Korean people dress. In my dream, I was visiting Korea.I wish I can speak Korean language and visit there one day. I like that way they dance. Korean Mountains cover 70 percent of Korea and arable plains are generally small and fall between the successive mountain ranges
