Jiaozhi

Shouldn't Jiaozhi redirect to Tonkin, not Annam? Badagnani (talk) 19:04, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see, northern Vietnam was first called Jiaozhi, then Annam (then Tonkin). It's confusing. Badagnani (talk) 19:05, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, though also the name of Vietnam, Jiaozhi is Jiaozhi and it needs a independent article. Sholokhov (talk) 06:04, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dates of existence

The following dates (in italics, with relevant text in bold) are inconsistent:

In 679, Tang Dynasty established Protectorate General to Pacify the South (Chinese: 安南都护府) as their military government in Jiaozhi. The Sino-Vietnamese name of this government is An Nam đô hộ phủ which can be called for short An Nam (Pacified South) or Annam as in Western documents.
It was to remain Annam for the next 600 years, seemingly living up to its name. A peaceful territory, part of a succession of Chinese kingdoms: Wu, Eastern Jin Dynasty, Song, Southern Qi, Liang, Chen, Sui Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty.
Finally in 939, Ngo Quyen revolted against the Southern Han and turned Annam into the Dai Viet. This was the effective end of Annam as a Chinese province. Several attempts were made by various Chinese governments to retake Vietnam, one succeeded (Ming Rule of Vietnam) but only for 20 years (1407 - 1427).

If the region was "Annam" from 679-939, then it was Annam for 260 years, not 600 years. Something here needs fixing, but I'm not sure what exactly. --131.122.105.217 (talk) 14:20, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
