Thailand is the only country in Southeast Asia that was never colonized by a European power. It maintained its independence by skillfully negotiating with colonial powers and playing them off against each other.
Thailand
No. It was never a member of the British Commonwealth or Commonwealth of Nations. While the British did at one point control small parts of what is now modern-day Thailand's territory, the Thai monarchy remained in power and Thailand is the only Southeast Asian nation that has never been colonized by Western powers.
The only African country not colonised by a European power was Ethiopia (formerly called Abyssinia). The Italians did invade Abyssinia in 1936 but never successfully conquered it and were driven out by 1945. Liberia was established by the government of the United States of America as a place in Africa where freed slaves could return to.
Thailand was able to remain a free state by never being colonized by a European power. The country maintained its independence through skillful diplomacy, playing off the rivalries between colonial powers, and adopting modernization and reforms to adapt to changing global dynamics. Thailand's strategic location and strong cultural identity also helped in safeguarding its sovereignty.
Most of the countries that once were colonies got the legal system of their new 'mother' country. So many former colonies still have a legal structure based on the European legal systems, which usually entails the system of 3 mutually independent 'powers' within Government: legislative, judicial and executive. Third world countries that were never colonised mostly did not have such a '3 powers'-system originally. Today however most countries - former colonies or not - have adapted the Western world's system of government, although the real power and independency of judges and Parliament may in some countries exist only in theory.
Is it 220 ac or 240 ac in Thailand

Much more positive than rule by other European Empires. While many people concentrate on the negative aspects of British rule they almost always ignore what the alternative was. Canada needs only look at the history of those colonised by other European Empires, such as the Spanish or French, to see that our connection to the worlds superpower that Britain became was very positive. Not being ruled by a European power was never an option for this area of the world.
The British originally colonised what is now Zimbabwe
