Considering the period of Bangkok as a capital of Siam ( Or Thailand) since 1782, a period of 90 years is counted almost a half time of Bangkok’s age. From 1932, the new regime attempted to remain superior but was confronted with many obstacles. When the new regime started to settle, there were always some influential people wipe out the system by doing a coup d'etat. Although the difficulties and obstacles, the attempt of establishing the new regime was never decrease and they continually believed in the equality in humanity.
