Devahastin Family
The Devahastin family ( th, เทพหัสดิน, ) is a Thai family of royal descent, tracing its origins from Prince Thepharirak, a nephew of King Rama I. Its best known member was Sanan Devahastin na Ayudhya, better known by his noble title Chaophraya Thammasakmontri, a senior government official of the 1920s–1930s. History The family traces descent from Phraya Ratchaphakdi (Mom Rajawongse Chang), whom sources describe as either a grandson or a son of Prince Thepharirak, himself a nephew of King Rama I. The family name was granted by King Vajiravudh (Rama VI) to Phraya Phaisansinlapasat (Sanan Devahastin na Ayudhya, later to become Chaophraya Thammasakmontri) in 1913 when he decreed the use of surnames. The romanized spelling, which does not reflect the Thai pronunciation, is based on the Sanskrit root words ''deva'' and ''hastin'', which roughly mean 'god' and 'elephant' (a reference to the name ''Chang'', which also means 'elephant'). The name is suffixed with ''na ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

19th-century Chakri Dynasty
The 19th (nineteenth) century began on 1 January 1801 ( MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 ( MCM). The 19th century was the ninth century of the 2nd millennium. The 19th century was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanding beyond its British homeland for the first time during this century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Islamic gunpowder empires fell into decline and European imperialism brought much of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and almost all of Africa under colonial rule. It was also marked by the collapse of the la ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
18th-century Chakri Dynasty
The 18th century lasted from January 1, 1701 ( MDCCI) to December 31, 1800 ( MDCCC). During the 18th century, elements of Enlightenment thinking culminated in the American, French, and Haitian Revolutions. During the century, slave trading and human trafficking expanded across the shores of the Atlantic, while declining in Russia, China, and Korea. Revolutions began to challenge the legitimacy of monarchical and aristocratic power structures, including the structures and beliefs that supported slavery. The Industrial Revolution began during mid-century, leading to radical changes in human society and the environment. Western historians have occasionally defined the 18th century otherwise for the purposes of their work. For example, the "short" 18th century may be defined as 1715–1789, denoting the period of time between the death of Louis XIV of France and the start of the French Revolution, with an emphasis on directly interconnected events.
