The United Thai Nation Party (Thai: พรรครวมไทยสร้างชาติ, RTGS: Ruam Thai Sang Chart) is an ultra-conservative nationalist Thai political party founded on 31 March 2021 by Seksakon Atthawong, the former Deputy Minister to Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha. In the run-up to the 2023 general election, then Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha joined the party on 9 January 2023 as its candidate for the position. The party emerged as the fifth largest party in Thailand, winning 36 seats in the House of Representatives and 12.55% of the vote. The party has been described as ultra-conservative, pro-military, and monarchist. In 2023, party spokesperson Akkradech Wongpitakroj claimed that the party espoused modern conservatism. Currently, it is the second largest party in the ruling government coalition since 2023.
