History of Thailand
Around 1000AD ethnic Thai
migrated from China to establish small states in the region which is now Thailand. The
most
notable kingdom was the kingdom of Sukhorthai. Strong Indian influence introduced Buddhism
in the region. Today
Buddhism remains the dominant religion of the Thai people. Around 1350
the united kingdom of Siam was established.
Beginning in the 16th century Siam was alive
with both European & Portuguese traders & missionaries.
