1768 CE

King Taksin, having firmly established his power at Thonburi, sets out what can be called 'the reunification' of the kingdom, crushing his regional rivals.

After a temporary repulse by the Governor of Phitsanulok, he concentrates on the defeat of the weakest one first.

Prince Teppipit of Phimai is vanquished and executed in 1768.

Chao Narasuriyawongse, one of Taksin's nephews, is substituted for Teppipit as Governor.
