Laos (lɑːoʊs / (ku saabsan codkani waa dhagaystaa), [8] / laʊs, lɑːɒs, leɪɒs /; [9] [10] Lao: ລາວ, Lao: láːw], Lāo; Muwaadiniinta Dimoqraadiga ah (Lao: ເມືອງ ລາວ, Muang Lao), waa waddan baddan oo ku yaal wadnaha jasiiradda Indochina ee gobolka Woqooyi Bari ee Koonfur-bari, waxaa xuduud u leh Myanmar (Burma) iyo Shiinaha oo waqooyi-galbeed, Vietnam ilaa bari, Cambodia ilaa koonfur-galbeed, iyo Thailand ilaa galbeed iyo koonfur-galbeed [11] Liibaaniya maanta ayaa raadineysa aqoonsigeeda taariikheed iyo dhaqameed ee boqortooyada Lan Xang Homo Khao (Boqortooyada Milyan Elephants ee ku jirta White Parasol), taas oo jirtay afar qarniyadood oo ka mid ah boqortooyooyinkii ugu ballaadhnaa ee Koonfur Bari Asia. Maaddaama Lan Xang uu ku yaalo bartamaha jamhuuriyada Aasiya, boqortooyadu waxa ay awood u yeelatay in ay noqoto xarun caan ah oo ganacsi miyir-beel ah, oo dhaqaale ahaan iyo dhaqan ahaanba hodan ku ahaado. [12] Ka dib markii muddo colaado ah, Lan Xang wuxuu u gooyey saddex boqortooyo kala duwan - Luang Phrabang, Vientiane iyo Champasak. Sanadkii 1893, waxa uu noqday ilaaliye Faransiis, iyada oo saddexda dhuleed ay midoobeen si ay u sameeyaan waxa haatan loo yaqaano waddanka Laos. Waxay si kooban u heshay xorriyaddii 1945 ka dib markii ay shaqeynaysay Japan, laakiin waxaa laga codsaday Faransiiska ilaa ay ku guuleysteen madaxbannaanidii 1949-kii. Laos waxay madaxbannaanayd 1953-dii, iyada oo xukunka dastuuriga ah ee hoos yimaada Sisavang Vong. Muddo yar ka dib xorriyadda ka dib, dagaallo sokeeye oo dhaadheer ayaa soo afjarey xukunkii, markii dhaqdhaqaaqa Communist-ka Xisbigu u yimid awoodda 1975-kii. Sanadihii ugu horreeyay ee xukunka Communist, Laos wuxuu ku tiirsanaa kaalmo milatari iyo mid dhaqaale oo ay taageerto Midowga Soofiyeeti illaa iyo intii ay burburtay 1991 .
