Thailand Geography, Politics, and Culture

Thailand is a southeast Asian nation with Bangkok as its capital city. Political stability fluctuates due to the constant coups but Thailand continues to have a monarchy that appears to have a strong partnership with its military. The government controls the media, television, and radio stations but the media are also granted the freedom to speak out and criticize the government for oppression, corruption, abuse of office, among others. Thai culture is deeply rooted in Buddhism where Buddhist beliefs and values are incorporated in their day-to-day lives while exemplifying traditional Buddhist values of mutual respect and self-control. Their cuisine is very popular worldwide and the country has become a major tourist destination of late. Its beaches and resorts are a popular destination for celebrities and regular folk, alike!
