Lavo Kingdom
Lavo Kingdom was a state in Thailand and Laos (Southeast Asia) that lasted from c. 650 to 1388 CE, about 738 years. The language of its people is unknown or undeciphered.
A mandala of the lower Chao Phraya centred on Lavapura (modern Lopburi) from the 7th century, at first part of the Dvaravati world. Its centre moved to Ayodhya in the 1080s, though the two sent separate embassies to China in the late 1200s and may have been distinct states.
