More about Thailand
History
Around 1240 Taiv peoples immigrated from the north founded the kingdom of Sukhothai, which extended its sphere of influence to the Malay Peninsula. It was ousted by the Ayutthaya Empire in the 14th century. In 1767 the Burmese conquered Ayutthaya. After their expulsion, Chaophraya Chakri (* 1737, † 1809) ascended the throne in 1782. He founded the Chakri dynasty, which is still ruling today, and moved the residence to Bangkok. Unlike its neighboring countries, Thailand was never a colony. In 1938 Pibul Songgram (* 1897, † 1964) established a military dictatorship. The regime renamed Siam in Thailand and sided with Japan during World War II.
In the post-war period, numerous coups prevented lasting democratization. The military took over rule several times. There were elections , but they were often not democratic. In 2001 Thaksin Shinawatra (* 1949) was elected head of government. He was supported above all by the poorer sections of the population in the cities and in the countryside. In 2006 the military deposed him. In 2011, Yingluck Shinawatra (* 1967), a sister of Thaksin, became the first woman in the country’s history to head the government. In 2014 she too was overthrown in a military coup. In 2016, King Bhumibol Aduljadeh (* 1927), who had ruled since 1946, died. He was succeeded by his sonMaha Vajiralongkorn (* 1952).
Population
About 75% of the population consists of Taiv peoples: Thai live mainly in the center and south of the country, Lao Isan in the north and north-east, Shan in the north-west. The official language is Thai , which is written with its own letters (Thai script). Most of the Chinese (14%) did not immigrate until the mid-19th century. Most of them have Thai citizenship and are largely integrated. They are mainly active in trade, craft and industry and live mainly in cities. The ethnic minorities in the mountains of the north make up 1.4% of the total population. Almost half of them belong to the Karen (Sino-Tibetan language group). The Tibetan-Burmese language family includes the Lahu, Lisu and Akha, the Mon-Khmer peoples the Htin, Lawa, Khmu and Mrabi. The Miao (Hmong) and Yao form a separate language group within the Austro-Asian languages(Mien). Most of these peoples immigrated to the mountain areas of Thailand, which were hardly populated at the time, since the 18th century (especially the Karen) and the 19th century (especially the Hmong, Yao, Lahu, Lisu, Akha). They traditionally live from agriculture (mostly with slash and burn, also poppy cultivation [Golden Triangle]; Southeast Asian peoples and cultures). The hill tribes are severely disadvantaged in social life, especially women. Most of the Malays (4.5%) living in the extreme south are Muslim. Since 2004, their settlement area has repeatedly been the scene of separatist uprisings. The east is home to Khmer (3%). It is estimated that at least 500,000 refugees and illegal immigrants from Cambodia, Laos and Burma are stateless people in Thailand.
The average population density is (2018) 136 residents / km 2. However, it is extremely unevenly distributed. The mega city of Bangkok stands in stark contrast to the almost deserted rooms in the mountainous areas. The proportion of the urban population rose to 53% (2017). Over 12% of the total population live in the greater Bangkok area alone.

There is an extreme gap between rich and poor in Thailand. About a fifth of the population lives below the subsistence level and tries to survive in the shadow economy. In the health care system, basic medical care is only guaranteed in large cities. Tropical infectious diseases such as malaria and dengue fever are widespread. A specialty of Thailand is the highly developed medicine in the field of health tourism. This applies to wellness, plastic surgery and dental treatments as well as care for the elderly.
