Myanmar is a country of Southeast Asia, bordered by Bangladesh, India, China, Laos and Thailand. A little over 1,2 million Rohingyas are currently living in Rakhine State, which was attached to Myanmar in 1784, in the north-western part of the country. They mainly live in the three towns of Mondo, Buddy and Ladi Dang.
These Sunni Muslims live in a country where more than 90% of the 52 million inhabitants are Buddhists.
They are considered by the UN as "one of the most persecuted minorities in the world".
