Copper coin issued by Mac Dang-dung. 莫登瀛 MAC DANG-DINH (1530-1537) succeeded in 1530 through the abdication of his father MAC DANG-DUNG. In 1536 the Emperor of China sent a commission to study the political status of Annam, and in consequence of the report received he declared war against the MAC. Mac Dang-ding died at the very time that the Chinese armies passed the frontiers of the kingdom in 1537, and his father, resuming the management of affairs, hurried to submit to the Imperial will, and declared himself to be a vassal of China- The Emperor then divided the territories of Annam into two kingdoms, giving that of Cochinchina to the LE family, and declaring Tunquin to be a feudatory state of China under the government of the Mac. |
