Thai Royal anthem was composed by a Russian (or German).

The royal anthem, “Phleng Sansoen Phra Barami” is a song honoring the king. In use since 1871, the music was composed by Pyotr Schurovsky of Russia. The current lyrics were written by Prince Narisaranuvadtivongs, around 1913 and were later revised by King Rama VI. “Phleng Sansoen Phra Barami” was the national anthem of Siam until 1932.

Thailand’s national anthem is called “Pheng Chat” The melody was written by Peter Feit (known in Thailand as known in Thailand as Phra Jenduriyang), the son of a German immigrant and royal advisor for music. When the nation’s name was changed to Thailand from Siam in 1939, the government held a competition for new lyrics for the anthm. Luang Saranuprapan was awarded one thousand baht for writing the words we still sing today.

In 1688 King Phetracha expelled all Europeans from the Kingdom due to his belief that a Greek adviser to King Narai (who he had just staged a coup against) was going to use the royal heir as a puppet and later become king himself. The Greek, Constantine Phaulkon, his followers and the royal heir were all executed as a result. King Narai died soon after.

King Bhumibol Adulyadej, the ninth king of the Chakri Dynasty, celebrated his 60th year on the throne, making him the world’s longest-serving monarch.
