    The Lao People's Democratic Republic is a landlocked country in Southeast Asia, bordered by Myanmar (commonly known in the west as Burma) and the People's Republic of China to the northwest, Vietnam to the east, Cambodia to the south, and Thailand to the west. The term Lao is most frequently used to refer to the dominant language and people of Laos. It is also a romanised form of the word Laos in the Lao language (ລາວ). It is sometimes used in English to refer to the country as well, but romanization standards hold that "Laos" is the preferred spelling. From the 14th to the 18th century, the country was called Lan Xang or Land of A Million Elephants Sathalanalat Paxathipatai Paxaxon Lao (In Detail) National motto: Peace, Independence, Democracy, Unity and Prosperity Official language Lao Capital Vientiane President Khamtai Siphandon Prime minister Boungnang Vorachith Area Ranked 79th 236,800 km²

Translation Laos Geography Laos is completely surrounded by its neighbors, and sharing its borders with China, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. It has been uneasy access to international trade over the centuries. It was more heavily suffer specially during the Vietnam War due to its location and unsettle of its own revolution. On other hand, Laos today with its location at the heart of Southeast Asia, has provided opportunity to capitalize on its strategic location for major trading routes in the region. There is more of the great location, especially lot of mountains and major parts of the country are covered with forest which provides best for hydroelectric dams, estimated to be more than 46 dams can be built and presently there are more than 20 dams in the planning stages throughout the country. With all such projects being planned so it is believed that Laos may become an energy source for the region once these projects are finished. The great Mekong, the twelfth longest river in the world, flows through the country that provides fertile valley for agriculture, with the fish that-along with rice - is a main diet of Lao. The terrain in the north is marked steep, jagged mountain slopes, while in the south profit from the fertile plains such as the Pakson Bolaven Plateau where most of famous coffee is grown.
