Answer 1

The correct answer is a. Siam acts as a buffer state between two empires, France and England, during the colonial period.Explanation: During the colonial period, Siam (now known as Thailand) served as a buffer state between the French and British empires. This meant that Siam maintained its independence and sovereignty while acting as a neutral territory between the two colonial powers. By doing so, Siam was able to prevent direct conflict between France and Britain and maintain its own political and economic interests in the region.
