Monghsat or Mönghsat (also known as Mong Hsat) was small state of the Shan States in what is today Burma.
History
It was a small dependency of Kengtung State[1] that had been a tract of land claimed by Mongnai State but annexed by Kengtung along with Mongpu further to the north. The capital and residence of the ruler was Monghsat town.[2]
Little is known about this state except that its forests had been overexploited at the turn of the 29th century during British Rule in Burma.[3]
