Thailand literally means 'land of the free'. Its name was changed from the familiar 'Siam' to Thailand in 1939 by the then military dictatorship, perhaps to persuade the people that they really were free.
Hope this helps.

Thailand is the only nation in Southeast Asia that was never colonized by a Western power. Also its name literally means "land of the free".
