Extractions: Thailand History Located in Southeast Asia, Royal Kingdom of Thailand is a remarkable country famous for its exquisite natural beauty, splendid wildlife, delicious cuisine and its unique culture and heritage. Although Thailand history is believed to have started around 6th century, archaeological excavations reveal that Thailand history is around 4,000 years old. The principal religion of Thai people is Buddhism. It is believed that Indian missionaries who traveled to this region during 2nd and 3rd century BC introduced Buddhism. Hence, Thailand history dates back to this period. Several agricultural communities were existent in Southern Thailand during 6th century. But, the history of modern Thailand is from 10th century AD, which was called the Dvaravati Period. During this period, Thai people migrated from Southern China to their ancestral home and started establishing their own states. For several years Khmer, Mon and Malay Kingdoms ruled Thailand. Neighboring Khmers, Burma and Vietnam constantly challenged the sovereignty of this region.

Extractions: Local family circa 1900 Lanna or Lannathai is the given name of a prosperous self ruling kingdom, once the power base of the whole of Northern Thailand as well as parts of present day Burma (Myanmar) & Laos. The title means "Land of a million rice fields'. The rich culture and history owe much to the influence of Burma and, to a certain extent Laos. Still found in northern temples is the script of Lanna, which is probably the original Thai script and thought to be based on Mon. A similar script is still in use today by the Shan people.

Extractions: Skip to Navigation Search Share This Print Home Destinations Asia Thailand › History The earliest civilization in Thailand is believed to have been that of the Mons in central Thailand, who brought a Buddhist culture from the Indian subcontinent. In the 12th century, this met a Khmer culture moving from the east, the Sumatran-based Srivijaya culture moving north, and citizens of the Thai state of Nan Chao, in what is now southern China, migrating south. Thai princes created the first Siamese capital in Sukhothai, later centres in Chiang Mai and, notably, Ayuthaya. The Burmese invaded Siam in both the 16th and 18th centuries, capturing Chiang Mai and destroying Ayuthaya. The Thais expelled the Burmese and moved their capital to Thonburi. In 1782, the current Chakri dynasty was founded by King Rama I and the capital was moved across the river to Bangkok. In the 19th century, Siam remained independent by deftly playing off one European power against another. In 1932, a peaceful coup converted the country into a constitutional monarchy, and in 1939 Siam became Thailand. During WW II, the Thai government allowed Japanese troops to occupy Thailand. After the war, Thailand was dominated by the military and experienced more than twenty coups and countercoups interspersed with short-lived experiments with democracy. Democratic elections in 1979 were followed by a long period of stability and prosperity as power shifted from the military to the business elite.

http://www.marimari.com/content/thailand/general_info/history/history.html

Extractions: History Archeological discoveries around the northeast hamlet of Ban Chiang suggests that the world's oldest Bronze Age civilization had flourished in Thailand some 5,600 years ago. Successive waves of immigrants, including Mons, Khmers, and Tais gradually entered the land mass known then as Siam, most of whom traveled slowly along fertile river valleys from Southern China. By the 11th and 12th Century, Khmers ruled much of the area from Angkor. By the early 1200s, the Tais had established small northern city states in Lanna, Phayao, and Sukhothai. In 1238, two Tai chieftains rebelled against Khmer suzerainty and established the fully independent Thai kingdom in Sukhothai (literally, 'Dawn of Happiness'). Sukhothai saw the Thais gradual expansion throughout the entire Chao Phraya River basin, the establishment of Theravada Buddhism as the paramount Thai religion, the creation of the Thai alphabet, and the first expression of nascent Thai art forms, including painting, sculpture, architecture, and literature.
