Thai Charoen (Thai: ไทยเจริญ, in Thai pronounced as /tʰāj t͡ɕā.rɤ̄ːn/) is a district of Yasothon province in northeastern Thailand.
Thai Charoen, formerly a sub-district (tambon) of Loeng Nok Tha, was established as a minor district (king amphoe) on 1 April 1992, consisting of five sub-districts formerly of Loeng Nok Tha.[1]
On 11 October 1997, Thai Charoen was raised to district (amphoe) status, becoming Yasothon's ninth and Thailand's 784th district.[2]
The area has been home to the Roman Catholic St Michael's Church, Songyae, since 1908.
Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise): Pa Tio, Kut Chum, and Loeng Nok Tha, of Yasothon Province; Senangkhanikhom and Mueang Amnat Charoen of Amnat Charoen province.
The district is divided into five sub-districts (tambons), and 48 villages (mubans).
