Yasothon is the smallest province of lower northeast. It is famed for Rocket Festival. By history, Phra Wor, former minister from Vientiane and his friends, have migrated and settled a community at “Ban Singha Tha” in 1797. Later, in the year 1814, King Rama II of Rattanakosin has upgraded the community into a Yasothon Town which reports directly to Bangkok with Phra Soonthorn Rajawongsa as the first governor. In 1972, it became Yasothon province after separating from Ubon Ratchathani .
