Correct Answer: Suvarnabhumi


Solution : Correct Answer is Suvarnabhumi

Suvarnabhumi is a Sanskrit phrase that means "Golden Land" or "Land of Gold" and was coined by the ancient Indians to refer to the Southeast Asian region that includes Lower Burma, Lower Thailand, Lower Malay Peninsula, and Sumatra.
Although it appears to cover a large area in Southeast Asia, it is widely agreed that the word Suvarnabhumi was first used to refer to Lower Burma.
