About Thailand

The Thailand flag was officially adopted on September 28, 1917. Red is said to symbolize the blood of life, white the purity of the Buddhist faith, and blue the monarchy. The blue and white stripes were added to the flag during World War I. The country's official name was Siam until June 24, 1939, and between 1945 and May 11, 1949, when it was changed to Thailand. The word Thai is not, as commonly believed to be, derived from the word Thai meaning "freedom" in the Thai language; it is, however, the name of an ethnic group from the central plains (the Thai people). With that in mind the locals seemed to have also accepted the alternative meaning and will verbally state that it means "Land of the free". This might be due to language barriers and the avoidance of long difficult explanations.

Thailand is divided into 76 provinces, which are gathered into 5 groups of provinces by location. There are also 2 special governed districts: the capital Bangkok (Krung Thep Maha Nakhon) and Pattaya, of which Bangkok is at provincial level and thus often counted as a 76th province. Thailand is the world's 49th-largest country. It is comparable in size to France, and somewhat larger than the US state of California. Thailand is home to several distinct geographic regions, partly corresponding to the provincial groups.

The incredible natural beauty of the country; the ruins and relics of its ancient history, and countless attractions, including Phuket Island and the miles and miles of perfect beaches, have transformed exotic Thailand into one of the most popular tourist destinations in all of Asia.
