History of Vietnam series |
 | | | Around the year 930 AD, as Ngô Quyen (吳權) rose to power, northern Vietnam was a province and vassal state of China and was referred to as Giao Chi (交趾). Every year the governor/administrator of Giao Chi had to pay tribute and give offerings to China. During the beginning of the 900s, China was plagued and weakened by internal in-fighting during what is known as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period. The celestial emperor of China thus has his mind and hands full of problems in the North. Giao Chi took this opportunity to proclaim its independence and self government. Under the administration of Dương Định Nghe, this took place. To meet Wikipedias quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup. ...
