Chaliang (Thai: เชลียง, Chinese: 程良) or Sawankhalok, later known as Si Satchanalai, was a political entity in the upper Chao Phraya Valley in central Thailand.[1] It was founded in the early 600s by uniting four regional chiefdoms,[2]: 7  with Haritvanlee or Chaliang (นครหริตวัลลีย์) as the center,[3] and became part of the Dvaravati's Lavo.[1]: 32–33  In 1001, Chaliang was referred to as an independent kingdom Chéng Liáng in the Chinese text Song Shi.[4][1]: 28 [5] The term San-lo (三濼) mentioned in Lingwai Daida in 1178[6]: 288, 290  was plausibly referred to Chaliang's new center, Sawankhalok.[1]: 8 

After Haripuñjaya and Suphannabhum reclaimed Lavo from Angkor in 1052,[7]: 532 [8] Lavo's king, Phra Narai, moved the capital to Ayodhya in the 1080s and left the throne at Lavapura. The Mon-Tai dynasty of Chaliang took over and moved the seat southward to Lavo's former capital Lavapura; Chaliang then became the Lavapura's northern fortress.[2]: 21  However, this dynasty later lost Lavapura to Angkor following the Angkorian influence-expanding campaign to the Menam Valley in 1181.[9] During this era, this Mon-Tai dynasty also established royal intermarriages with the Siamese (Xiān) at Ayodhya.[10] Their descendants, later known as the Uthong (Lavo) dynasty, continued to rule Ayodhya until the Ayutthaya Kingdom formation in 1351.[11]

In 1157/58, Chaliang was occupied by another Tai monarch from Chawa (ชวา, Muang Sua) or Nam Ou basin.[12] This monarch led by Srinaonamthum [th][12] expanded political influence to Sukhothai of Lavo[1]: 4  in 1175.[12] However, nobles of the Lavo faction revolted and recaptured Sukhothai in 1181,[4] which caused Tai kings from Mueang Rad and Mueang Bang Yang to join forces and retake Sukhothai in 1238. This marked the formation of the Sukhothai Kingdom.[1]: 4 

During the Sukhothai era, Chaliang was comparable and equal to Sukhothai, in which both cities were the capitals.[1]: 25–26  However, after the Sukhothai Kingdom became the vassal of Ayutthaya, Chaliang lost its political influence[1]: 9–12  and was later demoted to the frontier city after Ayutthaya lost it to Lan Na in the 15th century.[13]
