Vietnam History from 1000 A.D. to 1900.

I am doing my blog mostly on Vietnam in the years of 1802-1902. The vietnamese was under this guy named Gia Long and he founded the Nguyen Dynasty and this was one of the last Vietnamese dynasty's. This dynasty started when they took over Hue. But this dynasty lasted to about 1945. He was supported a lot by this guy named Pierre Pigneau de Béhaine. Pierre was a French Missionary and he was bishop of Adran. He did a lot of good things like tried to move a centralized monarchy and he instituted sanctions against Buddhist and Daoist religious practices. The population was roughly 8 million. Then there was a new emperor and his name was Ming Manh. In 1840 Ming Manh sent people to London and Paris to comprimise with Christianity but adventually shot down. And in 1841 there was a new emperor and his name was Thieu Tri. He did not last very long at all. He also tryed to do the same thing as Ming Manh did about christianity and it was a complete failure. Him being emperor lasted until 1847. And in 1848 a new guy became leader of this and his name was Emperor TU-DUC. He was emperor for a long time he ended in 1883.
