[edit] The Third King
There're also the 3rd king too. It's originated by ancient army. The king lead grand army at the center. Upraja, vice king, lead the front line army and other royalty cover the rear. At the period of Ayutthaya, Upraja also called as 'Bantoon' and usually be the oldest son of king. Some time other son might elevated as 'Bantoon Noi' or Little Upraja and also be a second heir of the throne. In Bangkok period there was only one 'Bantoon Noi'. He was a nephew of King Rama I. His palace placed on the the ground that now is Siriraj Hospital, Thai people may call this area as 'Wang Lang' or the rear palace, originated by his duty to cover back in the army in the ancient time. --Pudtipong Nawasornyuttana 08:17, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Naming
Rama III didn't name himself, Rama IV Named him. --Pudtipong Nawasornyuttana 08:28, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Ananda Mahidol
His name should be Anandha Mahidol. --Pudtipong Nawasornyuttana 08:33, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Naming
Agreed there. The 4th king is the one who named all the other kings, not the 3rd. The 3rd was called "last". If the 4th wants to rule, there would be no place for him. That is why he renamed the whole thing. Actually, it is more like "First Land", "Middle Land", and "Last Land".
[edit] name of article
Shouldn't it be written in small letters, "Chakri dynasty", considering nouns in English are normally written small? Gryffindor 16:17, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
