| What do you know about Isan (Isarn/Isaan/Esan) and Lanna Kingdom? Isan was dominated by the Lao LanXang Kingdom in the 13th thru 17th century. The conflicts between LanXang and Siam in the 18th thru 19th century; Franco-Siamese treaties of 1893, 1904 and 1907; made Isan a final frontier between Laos and Siam. Isan covers 62,000 square miles (160,000 square km) from Mekong river to Khorat plateau. Today, there are more than 22 million Lao Isan people in Thailand (In 1997, Isan's population was 21,086,501 million people, about 1/3 of Thailand's total population) and most of the population is of Lao origin. The main spoken language of the region is Lao Isan language which is similar to Lao. |
