Proposal
The area of Thailand that I am interested in is Thailand's participation in World War 2 and the impact on the country during that time. I want to find out about how Thailand was involved in the war and what effect did this have on the people of Thailand. I want to find out particularly about the Thai- Burma railway and Thai-Japanese relations during World War 2.
My essential question is : How was Thailand involved in World War 2 and what effect did it have on the Thai people?
I have chosen to present my findings as a website as I think this will be an effective way to show all of my information.
My project is comprised of five parts.
Part 1: Thai-Franco War
The very start of Thailand's involvement in the war was the battle with the French over land in Cambodia and Loas.
Part 2: Japanese-Thai Relations
The impact the Japanese had on Thailand when they became military allies shortly after the end of the Thai-Franco War.
Part 3: Thai-Burma Railway
The railway commissioned by the Japanese to be built on Thai soil.
Part 4: Politics
The political situation during World War 2 and the effects it had on Thailand.
Part 5: How Thailand was affected by World War 2
How the Japanese alliance, Thai-Franco war, Politics and Thai-Burma railway affected the people of Thailand.
Reflection:
My reflections on how I did the project and what I learnt.
