===Crown Princes=== {{Main|Crown Prince of Thailand}} The '''Crown Prince of Thailand''' or '''Sayam Makutrajakuman''' (สยามมกุฎราชกุมาร) is the designated and [[heir apparent]] to the throne and headship of the dynasty. The title was created in 1886 when King Chulalongkorn appointed his eldest son by Princess Consort Savang Vadhana, Prince [[Vajirunhis]] as Sayam Makutrajakuman. The title was copied directly from the Western tradition. Since then, there have only been three crown princes. The most recent crown prince, Maha [[Vajiralongkorn]], was invested with the title in 1972 and became King in 2016. The succession is governed by the [[1924 Palace Law of Succession]] passed by King Vajiravudh. {|style="text-align:center; width:100%" class="wikitable" |- ! width="80" |Portrait!!width=17%|Name!!width=17%|Birth!!width=17%|Relationship to Monarch!!width=17%|Became heir!!width=17%|Tenure!!width=17%|Death!!width=17%|Heir of |- |[[File:Maha Vajirunhis.jpg|100px|Vajirunhis]] | style="background:#fffaf0;"|[[Vajirunhis|Maha Vajirunhis]] ||27 June 1878<br />[[Grand Palace]] ||Eighth son ||14 January 1886 ||14 January 1886<ref>[[Royal Thai Government Gazette|Royal Gazette]], [http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2429/044/368.PDF Announcement of the appointment of Prince Vajirunhis to the Crown Prince of Siam (Thai)] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303201213/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2429/044/368.PDF |date=3 March 2016 }}, Volume 3, Chapter 44, 1 March 1886, page 368</ref><br />{{ndash}}<br />4 January 1895<br /><hr />({{ayd|1886|1|14|1895|1|4}}) ||4 January 1895<br />[[Grand Palace]]<br />({{ayd|1878|6|27|1895|1|4}}) | rowspan=2 |[[Rama V]] |- |[[File:King Vajiravudh (Rama VI) of Siam.jpg|100px|Vajiravudh]] | style="background:#fffaf0;"|[[Vajiravudh|Maha Vajiravudh]] ||1 January 1881<br />[[Grand Palace]] ||Eleventh son ||4 January 1895 ||4 January 1895<ref>Royal Gazette, [http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2437/043/346.PDF The Investiture of Crown Prince Maha Vajiravudh (Thai)] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303222530/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2437/043/346.PDF |date=3 March 2016 }}, Volume 11, Chapter 63, 20 January 1895, page 346</ref><br />{{ndash}}<br />23 October 1910<br />''(acceded to throne as '''Rama VI''')''<hr />({{ayd|1895|1|4|1910|10|23}}) ||26 November 1925<br />Chakraphat Phiman Hall, [[Grand Palace]]<br />({{ayd|1881|1|1|1925|11|26}}) |- |[[File:HRH_Vajiralongkorn_(Cropped).jpg|100px|Vajiralongkorn]] | style="background:#fffaf0;"|[[Vajiralongkorn|Maha Vajiralongkorn]] ||28 July 1952<br />[[Amphorn Sathan Residential Hall]], [[Dusit Palace]] ||Only son ||28 July 1952 ||28 December 1972<ref>Royal Gazette, [http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2515/A/200/1.PDF Royal Decree announcing the Investiture of Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn (Thai)] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161105012859/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2515/A/200/1.PDF |date=5 November 2016 }}, Volume 89, Chapter 200 (ก), Special Edition, 28 December 1972, Page 1</ref><br />13 October 2016<br />''(acceded to throne as '''Rama X''')''<hr />({{ayd|1972|12|28|2016|10|13}}) ||''Living''<br />({{ayd|1952|7|28}}) ||[[Rama IX]] |}
