About Thailand

Geography

Located wholly within the tropics, Thailand encompasses diverse ecosystems, including

the hilly forested areas of the northern frontier

the fertile rice fields of the central plains

the broad plateau of the northeast

the rugged coasts along the narrow southern peninsula.

History

The Thai are descended from a much larger group of Tai-speaking peoples. The latter are found from extreme northeastern India in the west to northern Vietnam in the east and from southern China in the north to as far south as the central Malay Peninsula.

People

When the modern political boundaries of Thailand were fixed at the end of the 19th century and in the first part of the 20th, the country included peoples of diverse cultural, linguistic, and religious backgrounds.
