This is why I have had my 90 year old mom take the test too. Her grandparents were born in the 1850's. I am anxious to see what HER 4th and 5th cousins say.
Laos is not a separate ethnicity with 23andme. It's probably included in the wide group "Indonesian, Thai, Khmer and Myanmar". This in the most recent update. I guess in the region only Vietnamese is separate.
True. Laotians are closely related to the Thais. Similar languages. Maybe they don't have reference groups from Laos.
Yeah. I was really disappointed in BuzzFeed's video on this.
Bruh if that's really the grouping they have from 23and?me then their database must reaaally suck cause those are also 4 different linguistic families.
@@juch3 linguistic families have nothing to do with DNA, calm down.
It not being a separate ethnicity is simply because it ISNT a separate ethnicity. Indo-malays, Khmer, burmese and Tai (tai-kadai tribes) are the distinct ethnicities. Lao people are a Tai ethnic group
I think the reason Native American and East Asian are hard to separate in DNA tests is because Native Americans migrated from east Asia and Siberia to America.
That's exactly it
@@fredharvey2720 My great-grandmother was Native American. My mom and I took the 23 and Me DNA Test. My mom got 1.3% East Asian (Thai, Kymer, Indonesia) and Filipino/ Austronesian) and I received 0.3 Broadly East Asian and Filipino/ Austronesian).
Which siberian tribes did native Americans come.from? Evenks yakut ? Ngannasans? I remember someone sayin there was a yellow race in East Asia and a red race in Siberia 😮
No way...they did that..omgee
Is anyone else here because BuzzFeed privated the original video? hmm I wonder why
i feel like it’s bc the indian girl faced a lot of criticism bc she couldn’t accept the fact that she doesn’t have european dna
You’re exactly right, DNA labelling can be misleading if you don’t understand population migrations. The Lao people are just one of many Thai peoples so they probably didn’t differentiate a separate Lao DNA. Asian populations are still not represented as well as European by these commercial sites. I suggest Asians upload their results from the main companies onto GEDmatch and you can get further refined population histories, plus read the history of these regions! That Vietnamese guy shouldn’t have been surprised by Chinese DNA!
Very true! And very good idea.
My nephew is the bio child of an American mom of the usual dna & a man born in Laos. His dna is 50/50 & the Asian 50 is majority Chinese
I did it on GEDmatch but got more vague results. Like Southeast Asian as suppose to actual ethnicities
Lao people are not thai for God's sake. They descend from the taikadai group from Southern China. Taikadai includes Lao people and the thai.
@@patrickw123 Give them my profile with genetic codes which theyre allowed to sell? No thanks.
That Indian girl really wanted to have some European admixture. She seemed every disappointed!
Most indians are whitewashed and racist, remember they have a caste system by skin color.
And she should be. The test is not accurate. Anyone in India who looks like her has to have Indo-European ancestry.
@@gideonros2705I don't agree... North Indians do look like that and i have seen a lot of people who look like her ... Also Indian looks very different in each part of the country that you may think some of them are from east or southeast asia ...some also look like white ...so basically India is very diverse in terms of looks too
The Indian girl just couldn’t accept the fact that she was 100 percent Indian 😂
Even the Indian can be further explored in my opinion. Indians come in all colours, there are people of Afrikan, persian descent and the East Indians have distinct features. South Indians from each state look different. Chances are,23 and me would classify ME as Indian too, eventhough I am from Sri Lanka.
Same goes for China, its a collection of various groups of people.
Yeah, but they can only get as specific as they have samples for. Hopefully they'll eventually have enough people from all the different subcultures of India to separate them out.
I grew up my entire life being told i was half Filipino and half white.
I took the 23andMe test.
51.0% Filipino & Austronesian
48.4% European (primarily German with some British)
🤷🏻♂️ Lol
Funny not Iberian? Not very common percentages of white in Filipinos.
Hello sir, your parents were 100% Astronesian (Filipino, Malay,Indonesian) and 100% German. You were "told" about your parents? There's a lot more story to your story than your DNA results. Perhaps a book writing story. Cheers.
@@luciabri8767 he/she are half american, and one of her/his filipino parents are pure filipino with no iberian ancestry. There are white filipinos that live in the philippines who have iberian dna. I've seen so many filipino dna result and many of them have small and high percentage of european dna(mostly spanish or other european ethnicity).
@@francissantos7448 actually filipino & austronesian lang yan sakanya. Kasi yong indonesia at malaysia ay may halong austroasiatic dna(thai at cambodian) compared sa pilipinas na halos walang austroasiatic admixture. Yong isa sa parents nya ay may lahing german at british.
You're 100 % Tisoy.
Having blonde hair or blue eyes is not an exclusive european thing. Lots of people in central asia have blonde hair or blue eyes.
Because that's where it originated from not Europe
Do you mean in the regions where Asia meets Europe? Yeah, those people have mixed with blonde haired white people. That's why there are 'Asian' people with blonde genetics.
@@devongratrix4921there are black people that have no european heritage that have blonde eyes blue hair, i forgot their name
Always remember meeting gingers in China who were remote , blue eyes and ancestors had same
What a dumb and uneducated comment. Do you even know that ancestors of Europeans specifically Slavs, lived in Central Asian for thousands of years? Nort Indian subcontinent has the same/similar R1a haplogroup as Eastern Slavs. Do you know the history of Tocharians a Caucasian group whose mummies were discovered in Western China? Central Asians have blond or red hair because they are mixed with West Eurasians who were Caucasians.
I have a Chinese friend who doesn't want to bother with a DNA test, but I want her to take it. There is a lot of variety even within China.
Even in my street where i live in China, there is guy looks like european with yellow hair and a little bit gris eye, and there is another guy totally look like indo-pakistan guy.
As a Chinese who took American DNA test - dont. They just clump me as 95% Chinese. We need a DNA testing from China which will get better with sample size. Right now I heard their sample size is about 500K. You need at least 2 million to have a good sample size and to track the migration of people.
I figured the Japanese British girl was gonna have something colorful. As for the Native American- aren't they genetically related to Chinese and East and Central Asians?
RivkiB actually for years there was the Clovis First Bering Strait land hypothesis, but recent archeological evidence has detroyed that.
Also in 1421 the Ming Dynasty sent out tens of thousands of trade ships to explore the word and begin trade.
Only 7 returned. Magellan wrote that when he was sailing up the Pacific Coast of the Americas he found hundreds of these wreck ships, the survivors of the wrecks most certainly influenced the DNA of the local population.
But east coast ancient DNA samples correlate to ancient European DNA more than Asian DNA. As well as archeological evidence shows European cultural connection as well pottery, spear heads, etc.
Note do not confuse ancient Europeans with Modern Europeans that were part of the Indo-European invasion much later.
Native Americans are closely related to both East Asians and West Eurasian, weirdly. It’s a long story. About 1/3 of their ancestry is from a Siberian population that doesn’t exist anymore. One group went east to NA. The other group went west and contributed significant ancestry to the steppe people giving rise to the indo Europeans. The other 2/3 is related to East Asians.
The Bering Strait theory of how Asian crossed to America is the mostly accepted theory. This is why if you have been to the Arctic circle, the native there including the people of Greenland look very Asians!
thanks for clearing up some of the confusion. so many of these videos need a professional to explain to them! i've even commented on a few trying to explain.
1:45 you dont have to worry it's a huge misconception that it's common for filipinos to have iberian ancestry. Atleast you wont find the same amount or percentage as you would in South America
There was a caste system back then that alone makes it quite certain that mixing around was rare.
I read somewhere that according to a german ethnologist(forgot his name) that in 1818, atleast 1/3 of the population in luzon(northern island) had spanish ancestry and that was a few decades before the spanish occupation ended.
Note that luzon was where the spanish influence was the strongest since that's where manila is, also because the sulu sultanate and the indigenous moros of southern Philippines were still resisting spanish occupation. So if there was few in luzon that means as you go south there would be fewer.
I’m surprised at how high some of these percentages are, especially from places that were colonized/conquered/“protected” by Europeans.
Just discovered your channel and subscribed. About to binge watch a fe3w others. I have been doing genealogy for 29 years and am trying to decide how to do a comparison of my Ancestry and 23&Me results for my YT channel.
I find that east asians tend to be correct when they believe they are from one area, probably due to the history of wanting to stick to the same people. I've ordered a myheritage kit so will be interesting to see as 4th/5th Gen out of china with both parents claiming full chinese
nah just caz American companies dont have enough sample sizes to break it down specifically. china is the size of Europe basically, saying ones Chinese is the equivalent of saying someone is European - which doesn't mean a lot.
Another thing with the Indian blonde-hair/blue eyes in northern India is the Indo-European common ancestry. Even thought these features are most common in northern Europe especially near the Baltic area, they can be found among any Indo-European people in varying degrees and are even found in other ethnic groups that conquered or were conquered by Indo-Europeans such as Turks, Mongols, etc.
mongols were Serbian and north east asian with predominant c haplogroup though.
"my mom is Japanese and my dad is white" checks out
One thing that gives Ancestry (and hopefully MyHeritage soon) is their new "Genetic Communities" or "Genetic Groups" which adds another layer in determining your ethnicity estimates. The communities feature uses your DNA, when linked to the family tree you created, and the records you and/or others have chosen to save to that family tree tree, to trace your ancestral lineage. So if genetic markers show you're Eastern European, but your ancestral migration shows you spent over a hundred years in the Bohemian region of Austria-Hungary, updated estimates may pin you as Czech or Slavic or even Austrian. 23andMe does not have this ability so it will lag with it's "Broadly Northwestern European" or "Broadly Eastern European"
I hear you... on the forums, one of the moderators said: "we don't know if or when previous customers will get this update" I truly despised the *if* part, but c'est la vie... hopefully they will give us other updates at least and not just leave us in limbo
None of you know anything about Laos and it shows. Lao and Thai ethnicities are both "Tai." We aren't separate ethnicities. Some of us are mixed because of immigration from other asian countries
The Indian woman could have Anglo Indian ancestry because of the British rule of India for decades (British Raj)
I'm from the UK, and I went to school with many girls of Anglo-Indian Descent.
My classmate Laura's grandfather was a full Indian man who married her Welsh grandmother, the product of which is her mother and aunts/uncle's.
Laura looked more like her English father, but her younger sisters looked more like their mother with a darker skin tone with black/brown glossy hair - seriously, they could of become models.
Twins girls in my school who were also the same mixture, and when I left school and got my first job, one of my colleagues was also Anglo-Indian.
There are lots of celebs here with that mix/ fully white who were born in India.
I think Cliff Richards; the singer, is of Anglo Indian heritage, Joanna Lumley(actress) was born in India, and Ryan Thomas (soap actor) is of the same mixture from his father.
Blond hair in India can't always be associated with British rule but with the Indo-Europeans whose closest relation is in Iran, Afghanistan and Russia.
Thailand and Laos are side by side and recognize each others languages almost 100%.
I had no idea that someone could have a parent with 11% of one race and pass none of that DNA on to the child. Fascinating!
I think it's just hard for Asians because names have also gone through changes when they immigrated, and dates were not always recorded accurately for births and deaths. Just by what was reported. Also, not enough samples in the data base yet, I think.
my man wore the black and white stripes for his French 9:42
FYI, Laos used to be part of Thailand only about 100 years ago (or less). His Thai is his Lao. He shouldn’t be shocked. Thai=Lao for DNA purposes. In fact, Chinese is the greatest minority population in Thailand. So, there’s probably more Chinese mixing in Thailand than in Laos… meaning, Lao people are more Thai than Thai people, in general, from a DNA perspective. Strike that… just looked it up… 1893 is when Laos separated from Thailand under French colonial rule… so, more than 100 years ago… but not much. There were brief periods, due to fighting back and forth, where a Laos country of some manifestation did occur previously in history. But for most of its time, including the vast majority of the time in which the DNA can “see”, Laos was part of Thailand. As such, even if there is something different between pure Thai and pure Lao DNA, it would probably be a lot like trying to separate the German and French DNA. WAY too much movement, mixing, etc. The main reason some Thai people look a little different is usually that Chinese mixing (think of that classic Thai chin… I live in Thailand… most folks I know here who do not have the most classic Thai features have Chinese origins… I also travel to Laos a lot… I find more Lao people to resemble the classic Thai look than Thai people themselves do… obviously, there’s tremendous variation in both countries - I’m not trying to racially stereotype people - but just as you can tell a black person from and Asian person on sight there are actually some subtle physical traits more or less common to ethnic subgroups). Anyway, point being, for DNA purposes a Lao person would register as Thai. Not surprised to see some Chinese mixing there too. Laos has a considerable amount as well.
Hi! Do you do a Q and A session? I’m new to the channel. I was wondering how you document stillborn children vs miscarriages in your tree. Thanks! I’d love to hear your opinion.
Dude, India is neither Southeast Asia nor Southwest Asia. It is just South Asia.
given lao-thai history, it made sense. we conquered each other back and forth exchanging prisoners of war. parts of thailand also went to the neighboring countries due to imperialism. his ancestors might have lived in that lock of land and couldnt be bother moving back to thailand when the border was redefined. given how dna testing has been such a hype im surprise you dont have more views.
That is likely unrelated. The Lao and Thai ethnicity are both "Tai", the same way there are still Tai people in China from before migration South, and Tai tribes in India after migration, or wherever else.
Some North Indians naturally have blonde hair and blue eyes. These traits don't necessarily come from Europeans. This is rather associated with expansion of Indo-European languages as well as other people groups that share these traits with the Proto-Indo-European source population (which were, anthropologically, eastern European hunter-gatherers mixed with Caucasian hunter-gatherers).
I’m so getting the kit for Christmas!! I can’t wait to see if what I been told is true 🤨🤪
* which kit do you recommend 23 and me or Anccestry?
13:59
7:37 Could it have anything to do with Indo Aryans?
Many Cantonese test as partly Vietnamese because genes don’t observe borders.
Northern Vietnam was part of China for about 1000 years. There were a lot of Chinese migrants to Vietnam in these 1000 years.
What genealogy test do you suggest today?
Ancestry is very good but 23 and me is better if you want medical but I’d do ancestry!
This was before the breakdown into Northern and Southern Chinese right? Also why not mention haplogroups
With a couple of those guys, I kept expecting her to say "...and you're 100% GAY".
I'm 50/50 Asian and European and my initial results with both 23andme and Ancestry were so wrong. Ancestry was a little better but 23andme was way off. They've since improved (Ancestry got a lot more accurate) but it's still frustrating for people with Asian heritage. 23andme originally said I had upwards of 8% native American and Pacific Islander, which was ridiculously off base. I'm almost exactly half Vietnamese and half British (small percentage of Scandinavian) so the Pacific Islander was bizarre.
it's not bizarre. islanders were southern viet people from fujian and taiwan and they migrate to these Island 5000-4000 yrs ago. and northern Chinese pushed down southern viet to Vietnam. it's not weird at all you would share some similar dna as islanders.
I wonder if 23&Me is the best option for persons of Asian ancestry- this really doesn’t make me think so
Hm, interesting because I’m Hmong. My parents were born in Laos and migrated to Thailand following the Vietnam War. My Hmong ancestors migrated to Laos from Southern China. My grandma is Chinese and my great grandpa (her dad) was a Chinese tradesman. I wonder how 23andMe would read my genetics. My aunt (Dad’s older brother’s wife) has a gene for blonde hair. She doesn’t have blonde hair, but some of her daughters do. They don’t have blue eyes, but light eyes (almost hazel). It’s not from a European ancestor either. Hmong were once believed to have blonde hair, but many were easily targeted. I’d love to see the genetic breakdown for my people.
Some isolated tribes in northern India can have light coloured hair and eyes, maybe that’s where it came from
That genetic input came from the aryans from central Asia
They should be more scientific in their description.
What they look for is markers that appear across multiple ethic groups but if they appear in one group disproportionately they assign that marker to that group. But it does not exclude other groups. They take probability markers and assume they are defining markers. And assign groups based on these markers.
Yeah I rarely see Laos in the ancestry test
can you react to Singaporeans Try: DNA Ancestry Test very interesting to watch
He pretty much said no, huh?
@tae912 - quite the opposite. I ended up doing the reaction - ruclips.net/video/Grx9XGDCubs/видео.html
@@GeneaVlogger 😏
the east indian girl is misguided. there's no way her mother had 11 percent european and she had none. after seeing thousands of results, no way.
Many Danish and Swedish people immigrated to India in the 1700s and 1800s.... it could explain an Indian with Blue Eyes....
Apparently a certain percentage of Anglo Indians are the product of Scottish and English men from the British East India company marrying Indian women.
Just Subscribed! I am Asian American, which company would you recommend me use for the DNA testing? thank you!
Fascinating. I would've actually thought that the 100% Asian Korean guy was part European because he doesn't have the stereotypical flattish face.
I wonder why the original video is private now
I agree with you that we should do the genealogy, but I can say from my own experience, it is really difficult to do as an Asian-American from the states, with the records (especially if you don't read/speak your heritage language) and, depending on where your family is from, life expectancy. Differences in inheritance laws make a big difference and also the cultural perceptions. Also, mail service in parts of Asia has been unreliable for a long time, so pre-internet, a lot of times, if someone moved to another village or island, contact was lost. My US family has reliable proof and is still in contact at least generally with about everyone out to 4th-5th levels. I've found a few genetic matches on the Asian side that I'm pretty sure are 3rd cousins, but no one can confirm because someone moved, that generation died, and the family lost contact.
Iam Cambodian I have Laos Vietnamese and Chinese
Wow❤❤❤
I'm Vietnamese and Chinese but I really don't care all that much.
They removed the video cause too many people were stomping on the Indian girl in the comments 😂
Like she could've just accepted it and done the DNA test and not reached out for an update it just showed how desperate she was for everyone to know she has some European DNA
I have a question, I have 3x great grandma who is born in denmark and has deep ancestry there and also who I have a beautiful story that connected to her and my 3x great grandfather, but it is theorized that her grandfather is from norway, due to his surname being rare in denmark but very common in norway.
Would any of that dna be detectable in a dna test or would it just be noise? Would it be detected if my grandma or her cousin did a dna test?
My mum is Norwegian, from vestfold. My ancestry dna test showed my dna as 53% Norwegian, Eastern Norway community and 8% Swedish. So it looks like Danish is a separate reference population.
My DNA, MY MOM AND FATHER DNA SHOW NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE BUT MY SISTER'S DO NOT, SO TRUE YOU MAY NOT INHERITE ALL THE DNA FROM BOTH PARENTS, AND MY DNA IS ALL OVER THE PLACE ..., AFRICA, NATIVE AMERICAN, BRITAIN, IRELAND, FRANCE, GERMAN, SCANDINAVIAN , MYNAMAR, Filipino, Austronesian, and this is just my maternal side
What ancestry service did you use?
Broadly east Asian DNA and Native American DNA are hard to tell apart especially if a person has DNA from the tribes of northeast Asia that are descended from the people who stayed in Asia instead of crossing the land bridge to North America.
Laos and Thai were same ethnic tribe in ancient time which were part of the Baiyue Group which the Viet as well. When Northern Chinese move South, it conquered the Baiyue people to migrate to Vietnam, Laos and Thailand. The Loas and Thai are from Tai - Kradai en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kra%E2%80%93Dai_languages
Lol that Indian couldn't let it go
I didn't pay for the upgrade, to the v5 chip on 23andme,
Hi! I was adopted from South Korea and would love to know my genes but also health factors. I have no interest in finding family. What would you recommend?
Pale, blonde, blue eyes, it’s sad we can’t embrace our core characteristics
So what DNA test do you recommend?
Yeah Laos and Thai that is extremely complex those are names of countries that only came into existence in the post WWII Era, and before that were collectively called French Indochina, and before that they were on and off parts of other empires. There were local cultures and tribes but trying to define specific ethnic groups is difficult.
The Philippines guy that's another tough one there are 7000 Islands that make up that country and the 1000 or so populated ones come from several dozen specific tribes,
It is like saying "Native American" to describe American Indians, there were at least 300 distinct tribes and cultures and lumping all into one group isn't fair to customers.
And the woman from India there is still a huge debate in scientific circles on issues like the Aryan invasion, Indo-European admixture, Densovan DNA, etc.
There's a guy from India that does a lot of Vids on this issue, and has a map of the various ethnic groups in India and it looks like a Jackson Pollack painting.
100% Indian doesn't mean anything since there is no Indian ethic group, just an amalgamation of dozens and dozens of people.
India is South Asia is it not?
it is
My dad has Native American DNA. I have none. He is my dad lol.
Wasn't Laos and Cambodia part of Siam or modern day Thailand 100 + years ago? Like for centuries?
Other way around. Siam and Laos were actually part of Cambodia at one point I’m pretty sure.
At one point in time Laos and Northern Thailand were one.
...
I had mine done via Ancestry. My grandfather was part Chinese. He had to change his Chinese name to be able to go to school but this did not show on my result, nada which is surprising coz we have an idea from which part of China he came from...?
How much Chinese was your grandfather?
@@LMan86 Never met him but I believe at least 1/4
I got 2% European, does that mean I had an ancestor that had some European DNA? Or could this be a misread
Their mystic background music just annoys while trying to understand them out of one speaker. . Maybe lower the tone of music unless it's important. Not your tone, theirs.
How accurate are the readings, like if i (a Finn with no known relatives from outside of Finland) take a test, does it show what ethnic groups of Finland do i come from and how far back can you trace the dna? (theoretically)
Not ethnic groups, per se, but some sites, like ancestry.com may identify regions of Finland where some of your ancestors are from. Ancestry.com has me as 98% Finnish and 2% Swedish, and identified two Finnish regions: Western Finland & Central Ostrobothnia (Keski-Pohjanmaa), which make sense because my mother is from Lohtaja (near Kokkola). My father's parents are from Kurikka & Kauhava.
Laos and Thailand are border countries.
There is no such thing as race. You are not your genes you are human.
Lao people are the same ethnic group as Thais and their language is a dialect of a Thai dialect so.....yea.
It's basically the same as white americans and white canadians.
Lol no. Lao is not a dialect of thai. Lao and central thai differ in spite of similarities.
They just descend from the taikadai group from Southern China.
Why did buzz feed take this down? Was it cause it was full of cringe and self hate 😂
23andme has more asian samples than others.
And the Filipinos
I don't like the fact that the genetics companies would use whole countries instead of specific ethnic groups or breeding groups.
Also, I don't think these ancestry tests mean anything at all except for the detection of diseases and genetic traits. That's it.
Ethnic group, which is more of a cultural and social phenomenon, means a whole lot more than just genetic group.
hi, i know this video was a while ago, but british isles is a outdated offensive term, very colonial. it's not a term recognised by the irish government or liked by irish people. please say britain and ireland instead!
I think 23andme is more accurate than AncestryDNA when it comes to the ethnicity breakdown
Doesn't AncestryDNA have about 1,000 more regions though?
Ha ha ha he thought he was half french
难以想象，印度人竟然以被殖民者混血为荣……
I can't stand that genealogist woman's voice...fuck... excruciating. I'm glad I wasn't in that group.
I wonder if I haven’t inherited some genes are they lost for my future offsprings or they can come out ?
Replying rather late, but if you _didn't_ inherit them, you can't pass them on; you can't give someone something you don't have, after all. However you _can_ inherit genes that your unaware of because they don't _express_ themselves in you, and you can pass _those_ genes on to children that might display them.
As an example, my grandfather was a redhead, and my mother inherited the genes for that despite herself being a blonde. Of her children with my black father, two of the five of us ended up with copper and blond highlights in our hair and one of us has hair so dark a shade of red that it looks black outside of bright sun; though chlorinated water will bleach her hair a slightly brighter red if she doesn't wash it out and spends a lot of time in the sun. That indicates that despite not _expressing_ her fathers ginger haired genes, my mother still carried them and passed them on; which in colloquial terms is what is meant when someone says a gene 'skipped' a generation.
What we're all finding to be _really_ interesting though, is that our darker haired siblings, whom have black and very dark brown hair, respectively, have both had a couple kids now and some of them have coppery red and blond strands in their hair as well. So it seems likely that those siblings, like our mother, inherited the genes for red hair without expressing them, before some blending with their SO's genes caused those genes to express themselves in _their_ children as well; so the ginger genes could be said to have 'skipped' _two_ generations before expressing themselves in my nieces and nephews.
I hope that explanation and practical example clears up your question.
Cheers
Spanish took Tlaxcala, mexica and maya to the Philippines. Keep in mind the new Spain colonized the Philippines and not Spain directly
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍
Asians dna are not diverse tho,
Laos and Thailand are the same group of people called Tai people.
Back then, there weren't any borders, they had a system called a mandala, which was the center of influence.
The Lan Xan kingdom was under the influence of the Ayuthaya kingdom, which later became Siam.
To avoid being colonized, Siam had to modernize itself and one of the most important things was to establish borders.
The land that later became Laos once was a part of Siam. But the French wanted it and Siam wasn't equipped to fight with the French so they they gave it to them.
And Thailand during WW2 sided with Japan. And one of the promises Japan made was to get the land back from the French. So they did, Thailand fought with the French and took back the land that they once lost to them.
Well, the Axis lost the war, and funnily enough, Thailand came out neutral when the dust settled because there was a free Thai movement that coordinated with the US to conspire against the Japanese.
But the French didn't let Thailand out that easily, they demanded that Thailand give the land back. The land that they took from Siam in the first place, and that land later became Laos after they got their independence.
Without the French, there wouldn't be Laos at all.
