   The title is a bit of a letdown: Burma Establishes a Nation. The protagonist transmigrates from Earth to a cultivation world, fails his ascension after a thousand years of cultivation, and is reborn on Earth on the plane following the 9/11 attacks in 2001. He subdues terrorists, becomes an American hero, wins a Nobel Prize for his research, and even plagiarizes songs to win over four beauties. The protagonist develops discreetly, secretly providing technological support to the Great Yu Kingdom, and then begins to suppress the United States, establishing a federal nation—the Union of Nations—in Burma. He then stirs up trouble in the Middle East, easily conquering and adding Black Africa to the Union. He ravages European countries, fights India three times, and takes over Southeast Asia. With Central Asian countries under his control, he divides Russia in the Ural Mountains, nuclearly attacks Japan, defeats two militaries, and peacefully reunites the islands. Once ready, he sets off for the edge of the sun to begin humanity's upgrade!
