Monthon Nakhon Si Thammarat

The Monthon Nakhon Si Thammarat (Thai: มณฑลนครศรีธรรมราช) was an administrative subdivision of Thailand in the early 20th century. It covered the eastern part of Southern Thailand.

History

The monthon was established in 1896, when the Nakhon Si Thammarat kingdom was abolished and finally incorporated into Siam. It originally contained the provinces Songkhla, Nakhon Si Thammarat and Phatthalung. 1896-97 the administration was located in Songkhla in the present-day Songkhla national museum.

1925 Monthon Surat was incorporated into Monthon Nakhon Si Thammarat, in 1932 also Monthon Pattani. Like all remaining monthon, monthon Nakhon Si Thammarat was dismantled in 1933.
