In 1707,the Big Lao lanxang has divided into 3 kingdoms and later loses inderpendence to Thai siames in 1779. my question is who was the king of siamese on that time??
King Thaksin the great(not Mr. Shinnawatra) Laos experienced immense instablility following the heyday of the Lan Xang Kingdom under the rulership of King Suryavongsa, who left no male successor when he died in the late 17th Century. From this date onwards the country was divided by internal warfare, external influences and successive invasions or incursions from Vietnam, Burma and Siam.(by maha Sila Vilavong)
