Thailand has a land area roughly 14 times the size of Taiwan. Therefore, the division of administrative districts is very different from that of Taiwan. Thailand has a total of four administrative levels. There are 76 prefectures at the top administrative level. These prefectures are subsequently subdivided into counties, townships, and villages. The National Municipal League of Thailand is an alliance of various cities in Thailand. It focuses on promoting municipal affairs and cooperation and strengthening relationships and communication. The image on the badge is the emblem of the National Municipal League of Thailand.
