Talk:Thailand

1. Thailand is not a small country, much less a small Southeast Asian country. By population, it ranks fourth out of eleven. In area, it ranks third. (Globally, those figures are 21st and 50th, respectfully.) Turtle Fan 03:06, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

2. Burma was not a British colony. It was a subdivision of colonized India. Thailand's western border was with India. Turtle Fan 03:06, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

3. C-o-l-o-n-i-Z-a-t-i-o-n. Turtle Fan 03:06, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

4. Former names are not germane to the introduction section. We often use that section to give the current names of countries which are referred to in HT's work by older names (Burma, Rhodesia) but the inverse is all but unprecedented. Turtle Fan 03:06, September 14, 2010 (UTC)
