Thai Charoen (Thai: ไทยเจริญ, pronounced [tʰāj t͡ɕā.rɤ̄ːn]) is a district of Yasothon province in northeastern Thailand.

History

[edit]

Thai Charoen, formerly a sub-district (tambon) of Loeng Nok Tha, was established as a minor district (king amphoe) on 1 April 1992, consisting of five sub-districts formerly of Loeng Nok Tha.[1]

On 11 October 1997, Thai Charoen was raised to district (amphoe) status, becoming Yasothon's ninth and Thailand's 784th district.[2]

The area has been home to the Roman Catholic St Michael's Church, Songyae, since 1908.
