Dom Pradit

Dom Pradit (Thai: โดมประดิษฐ์) is a tambon (subdistrict) located in the southernmost region of Nam Yuen district, in Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand.

[2][4] In 2022, Tambon Dom Pradit contains 20 villages (Muban; บ้าน or หมู่บ้าน), which are further subdivided into 21 administrative community units (Moo or Mu; หมู่).

[1] Neighbouring subdistricts are (clockwise from the west) Si Wichian, Bu Pueai, Ban Tum, and Na Chaluai, as well as Choam Khsant District of Cambodia in the south.

[2] The village was founded in the early 19th century by a group of people from Det Udom, when the region was under Champasak influence, but it later gained town status (Mueang) in 1881 when Kham Souk, the king of Champasak, proposed to King Chulalongkorn of Siam (the former name of Thailand) to upgrade Ban Chanla Na Dom to "Mueang Dom Pradit" (เมืองโดมประดิษฐ์), to be the town under the control of the Kingdom of Champasak, which was a vassal state of Siam at that time.

[2] In 1912, Mueang Dom Pradit was downgraded to being a tambon (subdistrict) of Det Udom district in a Thailand's former province, Khukhan [th],[2][4][6] following Siam's loss of Champasak to French Indochina.
