Nguyen Vinh Thuy, the Emperor Bao Dai, was the last Emperor of the last imperial dynasty (the Nguyen) of Vietnam. He came to the throne in 1932 but his efforts at reform were frustrated by the French authorities. In 1945 the communist revolution forced his abdication. He later returned as "Chief of State" of Vietnam until his prime minister ousted him in 1955. He lived in exile in France until his death in 1997.

  • "Con vua thi lai lam vua. Con thay chua chi di quet la da." This idealism has been resided in the heart of the Vietnamese people and lessened gradually when the American came to Vietnam. Now, the Vietnamese people are living around the world with diversified social classes, so who knows the secrete truth in the depth of their heart. The same thing has still been in Vietnam

  • @joel1923 lovely Country and friendly people. they have lived through great tragedy and have survived for over 2,000 years despite the attempts of the Chinese, French and Americans to "colonize" and/or eliminate them as a nation.

  • Viet Nam is a beautiful country, with a very sad history.

  • I always feel sorry for ousted monarchs.

  • most if not all of the modern Asian monarchies were highly effective institutions especially when it came to promoting both stability and progress - and like their European counterparts when they were eliminated disaster for the respective former Kingdoms followed.
