Thailand
Thailand ( ), historically known as Siam () and officially the Kingdom of Thailand, is a country in Southeast Asia, located at the centre of the Indochinese Peninsula, spanning , with a population of almost 70 million. The country is bordered to the north by Myanmar and Laos, to the east by Laos and Cambodia, to the south by the Gulf of Thailand and Malaysia, and to the west by the Andaman Sea and the extremity of Myanmar. Thailand also shares maritime borders with Vietnam to the southeast, and Indonesia and India to the southwest. Bangkok is the nation's capital and largest city. Tai peoples migrated from southwestern China to mainland Southeast Asia from the 11th century. Indianised kingdoms such as the Mon, Khmer Empire and Malay states ruled the region, competing with Thai states such as the Kingdoms of Ngoenyang, Sukhothai, Lan Na and Ayutthaya, which also rivalled each other. European contact began in 1511 with a Portuguese diplomatic mission to Ayutthaya, w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tha Tako District
Tha Tako (, ) is a district (''amphoe'') in the eastern part of Nakhon Sawan province, central Thailand. History The district was established at Ban Khao Noi, ''Tambon'' Tha Tako, in 1900. At first there was confusion whether the name was Khao Noi or Don Kha. It got its official name Tha Tako in 1917. In the past, the people in the district always visited a big river pier (in Thai ''tha'') to bathe and give water to their cattle. At that pier several big Tako trees ('' Diospyros sp.'') grew, so that pier was called Tha Tako.

Nuclear Power Plant
A nuclear power plant (NPP) is a thermal power station in which the heat source is a nuclear reactor. As is typical of thermal power stations, heat is used to generate steam that drives a steam turbine connected to a electric generator, generator that produces electricity. , the International Atomic Energy Agency reported there were 422 nuclear power reactors in operation in 32 countries around the world, and 57 nuclear power reactors under construction. Nuclear plants are very often used for base load since their operations, maintenance, and fuel costs are at the lower end of the spectrum of costs. However, building a nuclear power plant often spans five to ten years, which can accrue to significant financial costs, depending on how the initial investments are financed. Nuclear power plants have a carbon footprint comparable to that of renewable energy such as photovoltaic power station, solar farms and wind farms, and much lower than fossil fuels such as gas-fired ...

Tha Chana District
Tha Chana ( th, ท่าชนะ, ) is a district (''amphoe'') in the north of Surat Thani province of southern Thailand. History The district is quite old. Originally named Prasong (ประสงค์), it was a subordinate of ''mueang'' Lang Suan. In 1906 it was reassigned to ''mueang'' Chaiya, which is now Surat Thani Province. The seat of the district was in current-day Ban Tha Krachai. In 1909 as part of ''thesaphiban'' administrative reform most of the ''tambons'' were transferred to be administered directly by Phum Riang District, nowadays Chaiya district. The remainder of the district was reduced to a minor district (''king amphoe''), which then also became a subordinate of Phum Riang District. On 29 June 1919 it was abolished completely. As the area developed in the following decades, the district was recreated on 1 January 1948 as a minor district. The seat of the minor district was in Ban Talad Nong Wai in tambon Tha Chana, thus the district was also named Tha Cha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
