Thailand is home to nearly 67 million inhabitants.
The official language of Thailand is Thai.
One of the most curious animals to be found in Thailand is the Mudskipper, an amphibious fish able to walk on dry land thanks to its pectoral fins.
Thai cuisine is especially flavourful due in part to the frequent use of herbs and roots. Many dishes are prepared with seafood, fish, farm produce, fruits and/or spices.
The word, Thailand, means "land of the free" and is the only country in Southeast Asia to have never been colonised.
