The Republic of Thailand, commonly known as just Thailand, is a country in South-East Asia. It is a member of the Japanese Co-Prosperity Sphere as one of the few members that holds it independence, unlike its other Indochinese neighbours.
An original Axis member during World War II, Thailand saw great territorial gains in the peace deals, mainly in the Malay Peninsula, where it regained the control of the Northern Malay states of Kedah, Kelantan, Perlis and Terengganu that was lost in the Anglo-Siamese Treaty of 1909.
