Patani in The Bangkok Period
Pattani was easily defeated by Siam and resumed its tributary status. However, a series of attempted rebellions prompted Bangkok to divide Pattani into seven smaller Puppet kingdoms during the reign of King Rama II. Britain recognized the Thai ownership of Pattani by treaty in 1909. Yala and Narathiwat remain separate provinces to this day.

Famous quotes containing the word period:
“When we suffer anguish we return to early childhood because that is the period in which we first learnt to suffer the experience of total loss. It was more than that. It was the period in which we suffered more total losses than in all the rest of our life put together.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
