Laos Hotels and Travel Guide
Laos,
officially the Lao People's Democratic Republic, is a landlocked
socialist republic communist state in southeast Asia, bordered
by Myanmar (Burma) and the People's Republic of China to the northwest,
Vietnam to the east, Cambodia to the south, and Thailand to the
west. Laos traces its history to the Kingdom of Lan Xang or Land
of a Million Elephants, which existed from the 14th to the 18th
century. After a period as a French colony, it gained independence
in 1949. A long civil war ended when the communist Pathet Lao
came to power in 1975.
Private enterprise has increased since the mid-1980s, but development
has been hampered by poor communications in the heavily forested
and mountainous landscape. Most of the population of around 6
million practice subsistence agriculture. The country's ethnic
make-up is extremely diverse, with only around 60% belonging to
the largest ethnic group, the Lao.
