The Franco-Siamese crisis of 1893, known in Thailand as the Incident of Rattanakosin Era 112 was a conflict between the French Third Republic and the Kingdom of Siam. Auguste Pavie, French vice consul in Luang Prabang in 1886, was the chief agent in furthering French interests in Laos. His intrigues, which took advantage of Siamese weakness in the region and periodic invasions by Vietnamese rebels from Tonkin, increased tensions between Bangkok and Paris. The conflict concluded with the Paknam Incident, in which French gunboats sailed up the Chao Phraya River to blockade Bangkok. The Siamese subsequently agreed to give the area that constitutes most of present-day Laos to France, an act that led to the significant expansion of French Indochina. This came after the Haw wars (1865–1890), in which the Siamese attempted to pacify northern Siam and Tonkin.
A split-flap display, or a flap display, is a digital electromechanical display device that shows changeable alphanumeric text, and sometimes graphics. They are commonly used as public transport timetables in airports or railway stations. Commonly they are called Solari boards after Italian display manufacturer Solari di Udine, or in Central European countries they are called Pragotron after the Czech manufacturer instead. Split-flap displays were once commonly used in consumer digital clocks known as flip clocks. Description. Each character position or graphic position has a collection of flaps on which the characters or graphics are painted or silkscreened. These flaps are rotated to show the desired character or graphic. Sometimes the flaps are large and display whole words, and in other installations there are several smaller flaps, each displaying a single character. Flip-dot displays and LED display boards may be used instead of split-flap displays in most applications. Their output can be changed by reprogramming instead of replacement of physical parts but they suffer from lower readability. They also can refresh more quickly, as a split-flap display often must cycle through many states. Advantages to these displays include: The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority has designed the new LED replacements for its aging Solari boards at North Station and South Station to emit an electronically generated flapping noise to alert passengers to train boarding updates. Many game shows of the 1970s used this type of display for the contestant podium scoreboards. Usually, the flip was left-to-right on a vertical axis, although up/down on a horizontal axis was not completely unknown. Early seasons of the game show "Family Feud" used a split flap display as part of the game board (subsequent seasons used more modern digital displays, and eventually simply used a large digital flat screen monitor). The game board on the Nickelodeon game show "Make the Grade" was a 7x7 split-flap display, used to display subjects and wild cards, as well as tracking contestants' progress. The television game show "Chain Reaction" on Game Show Network features computer-simulated split-flap displays to display the various words in a chain. In Italy, split-flap displays have also been occasionally used as
