With its capital of Bangkok, the Kingdom of Thailand, formerly called Siam, is located in Southeast Asia. This constitutional monarchy, strongly based on Buddhist tradition, is considered the only Southeast Asian nation that has never been colonized by Europe. Thailand is the world’s largest exporter of jasmine rice, famous for kite flying, coconut milk and Thai curry. It is a popular tourist destination for its Buddhist temples, tropical islands of Phuket and Krabi, and sandy beaches at the Andaman Sea.
