Möng Mao Lông, commonly known as Möng Mao or Luchuan (麓川) in Chinese sources, was a Tai dynastic regime which held sway over the frontier regions of modern-day Myanmar, China and India from the 14th–15th centuries. It grew out of a small principality, centered on the Nam Mao (Ruili) river basin, which had previously been a vassal state of the Yuan dynasty.
