The recent tensions between Cambodia and Thailand have come to international attention as they have led to the downfall of the Thai Prime Minister. However, behind it lies a fascinating story of a border dispute that stretches back more than a century. But do you think that it could really lead to a more serious conflict, even accidentally?

Or do you think, in an age when states are starting to ignore international law, Thailand might try to seize Preah Vihear? As always, I look forward to your thoughts and comments below.
