Thailand has had an eventful history and has also experienced a change in its form of government since 1932. Until then, the country was ruled absolutely by its kings. But then came the turning point: Thailand changed from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy, in which the king still plays a significant role, but the power of the country lies primarily with parliament and the representatives elected by the people.
No Thailand quiz would be complete without the country’s most famous festival: the traditional New Year. We want you to tell us the local name for this festival. The New Year, which is celebrated every year in April, has a special meaning for the Thai people. It stands for new beginnings, purification and cohesion within the family and community. Buddha statues are ritually cleansed and people pour water over friends and relatives to bless them and ensure good luck for the new year. Did you know that?
