From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Annam (Pacified South, Chinese: 安南, Hanyu pinyin: Ānnán) is the name that the Chinese gave to the land that constitutes modern-day northern Vietnam. Throughout history, Vietnam never called itself Annam, and thus it is an exonym.

  • Annam (Chinese Province) - the name of an old province of China, now part of modern-day Vietnam.
  • Annam (French Colony) - the name of one of the French colonies in Indo-China.
  • The country of Vietnam before the French conquest in the 19th century was referred to as Annam.
