There is one crazy thing I forgot to mention that I learned in Kanchanaburi. Are you sitting down? On January 25, 1942, Thailand declared war on the United States!!! Who knew? And also, huh?

Unlike the other countries I have visited and most Asian countries, Thailand has never been conquered, colonized or occupied. Thais proudly ascribe their historic independence to strong leaders, which is one reason they are pretty sensitive about the “The King and I”‘s portrayal of very popular King Mongkut, who resisted European colonization in the 19th century.
