Nanyue (Traditional Chinese: 南越; pinyin: Nányuè; Vietnamese: Nam Việt) was an ancient kingdom that consisted of parts of the modern Chinese provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and much of modern northern Vietnam. The kingdom was established by the Han Chinese general Zhao Tuo (Traditional Chinese: 趙佗; pinyin: Zhào Tuō; Vietnamese: Triệu Đà) of the Qin dynasty who assimilated the customs of the Yue peoples and central China in his territory.

After the first Emperor of China Qin Shi Huang united China by conquering all six kingdoms in 219 BC, he ordered his generals to conquer the regions of present-day Guangdong and Guangxi. The conquest was completed in 214 BC. A new administrative unit, Nánhǎi Commandery (南海郡) was formed to rule the area corresponding approximately to present-day Guangdong. Zhào Tuō was appointed to manage a Lóngchuān (龍川), a strategic place in the military. He asked Qin Shi Huang to send 500 thousand people from Central China to Nánhǎi to assimilate the culture of Central China and Yuè. For the volcano in Indonesia, see Emperor of China (volcano). ...

Establishment

After the death of Qin Shi Huang, a wave of anti-Qin riots swept across central China and the Qin Dynasty soon capitulated. In 208 BC, the head of Nánhǎi Commandery, Rèn Xiāo (任囂), appointed Zhào Tuō to succeed his position and suggested that Zhao establish a country in the south and take advantage the mountainous boundary with northern China. Zhao soon reinforced the defences in the mountain passes north and replaced the Qin officials with his own followers. In 203 BC, he conquered another two commanderies, Guìlín (桂林郡, approximately Guangxi) and Xiàng "Elephant" (象郡, approximately Yunnan, north and central Vietnam), at the south of the mountain. The new kingdom of Nányuè was born, with Pānyú as the capital; Zhào Tuō declared himself Wǔ Wáng (武王, lit. martial king) of Nányuè.

Liu Bang, after years of war with his rivals, established the Han dynasty and reunified Central China in 202 BC. Liu and his successors adopted a policy of peace to give his empire time to regenerate. In 211 BC, the emperor Liu sent Lù Jiǎ (陸賈) to Nányuè to appoint Zhào Tuō as the King of Nányuè. Trade relations were established at the border between Nányuè and the Han kingdom of Changsha. Although formally a Han subject state, Nányuè retained a large measure of effective autonomy. Emperor Gao (256 BC or 247 BC–June 1, 195 BC), commonly known inside China as Gaozu, personal name Liu Bang, was the first emperor of the Chinese Han Dynasty, ruling over China from 202 BC until 195 BC, and one of only two dynasty founders who emerged from...

Changsha (Simplified Chinese: ; Traditional Chinese: ; Pinyin: ; Wade-Giles: Chang-sha) is the capital city of Hunan, a province of Southcentral China, located on the lower reaches of Xiangjiang river, a branch of the Yangtze River. ...

After the death of Liu Bang in 195 BC, the government was put in the hands of his wife, the Empress of Lǚ (呂后). The king of Changsha asked Lǚ to block the trade between two kingdoms and prepared to conquer the kingdom of Nányuè. Zhào Tuō was angry and felt alienated. In revenge, he then declared himself the emperor of Nányuè and attacked the kingdom of Changsha and returned. Lǚ sent general Zào (灶) to punish the Zhào Tuō. The hot and humid weather made soldiers fall ill and the army unable to go south of the mountains. The army withdrew. With the military success, Zhào Tuō reunited the surrounding state of Mǐnyuè (閩越) in the east and Ōuluò (甌雒) in the west to become her subject kingdoms. The empress thus killed Zhao's clan in Han and damaged his ancestors' tomb.

In 179 BC, Liu Heng ascended the Emperor of Han. He reversed the policy of the empress. He ordered officials to visit the family town Zhēndìng (真定), garrison the town and made offering to his ancestors regularly. His prime minister Chén Píng (陳平) suggested to send Lù Jiǎ to Nányuè as they were familiar with each other. Zhào Tuō felt surprised on Lù's arrival. He then withdrew his title of emperor and Nányuè became Han's subject state. Liu Heng (Simplified Chinese: 刘恒; pinyin: Liú Héng) (1954-) is generally seen as a realist writer. ...

The Yuè, under the domination of the Han (Han Wudi) was forced, wiped, tortured and enslaved to repair and enhance the Great Wall of China.

Zhào Hú

In 137 BC, Zhào Tuō died. His grandson Zhào Hú (趙胡) succeeded the king of Nányuè. Yǐng Xìng (郢興), the king of Mǐnyuè, attacked Nányuè. Zhào Hú asked the Emperor Liu Che to send troops to halt the attack of Mǐnyuè. The emperor sent two generals to Mǐnyuè. Before Han's advancing to Mǐnyuè, Yǐng Xìng's younger brother Yú Shàn (餘善) killed Yǐng Xìng and surrendered. Emperor Wu of Han (156 BC*–March 29, 87 BC), personal name Liu Che, was the sixth emperor of the Chinese Han Dynasty, ruling from 141 BC to 87 BC. Emperor Wu is considered one of the greatest emperors throughout Chinese history, ranking alongside Emperor Taizong of the Tang dynasty...

The emperor Liu Che sent Zhuāng Zhù (莊助) to Nányuè. Zhào Hú thanked the Emperor and sent his son Zhào Yīngqí (趙嬰齊) to the Han capital, Chang'an. He also wanted to go Chang'an but was stopped by his minister for fear that he could not return and it would be the end of the kingdom. He thus pretended to be sick and stayed in Nányuè. He really fell sick later for over 10 years and died. He got his posthumous name Wén Dì (文帝). For other uses, see Changan (disambiguation). ... A posthumous name (Traditional Chinese: 諡號/謚號 Simplified Chinese: 谥号; Pinyin: shì hào; Romaji: shigō/tsuigō; Revised Romanization of Korean: siho) is a honorary name given to royalty in some cultures posthumously, that is, after the persons death. ...

Zhào Yīngqí

Zhào Yīngqí returned to Nányuè and succeeded the king. He married a woman of family Jiū (樛) from Handan and born a son Zhào Xìng (趙興) when he was in Chang'an. He asked the Emperor to appoint Jiū as his queen and Zhào Xìng his crown prince. He sent his second son to Chang'an. Zhào Yīngqí died with posthumous name Míng Wáng (明王). Handan (Simplified: 邯郸; Traditional: 邯鄲; Hanyu Pinyin: ) is a prefecture-level city located in the southwestern part of Hebei Province of China. ...

Zhào Xìng

Zhào Xìng succeeded Zhào Yīngqí as king. As the king was young, the king's mother Jiū took control of the kingdom. In 113 BC, the Emperor sent Ānguó Shǎojì (安國少季) to Nányuè ask the king and the king's mother to visit the Emperor. Ānguó Shǎojì was in fact Jiū's lover when she was in Chang'an. They renewed their affair which made the subjects mistrust the king's mother. To secure their positions, the king and his mother wanted Nányuè to be a kingdom within the Han Empire. The king, his mother, and Ānguó Shǎojì tried to persuade Lǚ Jiā (呂嘉) and other ministers to follow. Lǚ Jiā stood and left. The king's mother tried to kill him but stopped by the king.

Lǚ Jiā refused to meet the king and planned to revolt. As he knew the king had no intention to kill him, the plan was not carried out for months.

Zhào Jiàndé

The minister Lǚ Jiā revolted and killed the king and the king's mother. He named Zhào Jiàndé (趙建德), the eldest son of Zhào Yīngqí, to be the king of Nányuè. In autumn 112 BC the emperor sent a navy of a hundred thousand strong to attack Nányuè. In winter 111 BC the capital Pānyú fell and many surrendered. Lǚ Jiā and Zhào Jiàndé escaped on the sea but were captured soon. Nányuè was officially incorporated into Han.

Controversy

Among the Vietnamese, the Zhào/Triệu Dynasty was a controversial one. Many consider it a period of Chinese domination since it was ruled by a Chinese general, while others consider it a period of independence because they believed that he adopted Yuè/Việt customs and often ruled in defiance of the Han emperor.

The people in northern Vietnam broke away from Han China in 938 A.D. after their victory on the Bach Dang river. They formed their own kingdom and called it Đại Việt (The Great Việt Kingdom). This kingdom grew stronger; it expanded south and conquered the Champa kingdom (in central Vietnam) and most of the Khmer empire (in southern Vietnam), forcing the Khmer to migrate. In 1800s, Nguyen Anh, a Việt king, wanted to change his kingdom's name from Dai Viet to Nam Viet. But some people were afraid that it may be confused with the Nam Viet kingdom of Zhào Tuō, so he reversed the word Nam Việt and made it Việt Nam.
