The Lao Issara (Lao: ລາວອິດສະລະ lit.'Free Laos') was an anti-French, nationalist movement formed on 12 October 1945 by Prince Phetsarath.[1] This short-lived movement emerged after the Japanese defeat in World War II and became the government of Laos before the return of the French. It aimed to prevent the French from restoring their control over Laos. The group disbanded in 1949.
