Sunday, October 14, 1973. The Popular Uprising (เหตุการณ์ 14 ตุลา)

The Popular Uprising (เหตุการณ์ 14 ตุลา), which had been going on against the Thai military government since October 9, reached a watershed moment with Thai soldiers killed 77 protestors and wounded 857.

Protests would briefly carry on, but this resulted in the resignation of the military government and the establishment of a civilian one, but military influence remained and the new government was not democratic.
