About Chai Nat
In central Thailand, north of Bangkok, one finds the small town of Chai Nat. During the many battles with the neighboring country of Burma, many of the Thai forces was located in Chai Nat. Since the ruling Thai forces are often assumed to victory was the site eventually named Chai Nat (place of victory).
