Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Thon Buri was the capital of Thailand for a short time during the reign of King Taksin the Great, after the ruin of capital Ayutthaya by the Burmese. King Rama I removed the capital to Bangkok on the other side of the Chao Phraya River in 1782. Thon Buri stayed an independent town and province, and was merged into Bangkok in 1972.In 1767, after dominating southeast Asia for almost 400 years, the Ayutthaya kingdom was destroyed. The royal palace and the city were burnt to the ground. The territory was occupied by the Burmese army. During the occupation by Burma, Thailand began to recover rapidly. The resistance was led by Taksin, a nobleman of Chinese descent and a capable military leader. Initially based at Chanthaburi in the south-east coast, within a year he was able to defeat the Burmese occupation army and reestablish the Thai state with the capital at Thonburi on the west bank of the Chao Phraya river, 20 km from its estuary at the Mouth of Menam.
