Human Geography: Goverment System





Thailand has a constitutional monarchy with seventy-seven provinces and an executive, legislative and judicial branches. The executive branch consist of the king and the prime minister, who is voted for by the people. The legislative branch has a senate and a house of representatives which is made up of people from each province. The judicial branch holds the constitutional court, the supreme court of justice and the supreme administrive court; all the judges are appointed by the king. The reason for its current system could be drawn to it's relationship with the U.S. and its willingness to adopt some western ideas but not all.
