Đàng Ngoài (塘外, "Outer Land"), also known as Bắc Hà (北河, "North of the River"), was an area in northern Vietnam during the 17th century Trịnh–Nguyễn War.[1]
Đàng Ngoài was ruled by Trịnh lords. It was bordered by Đàng Trong along the Linh River (modern Gianh River in Quảng Bình Province). The name was gradually fading out from the people's memory after Nguyễn Huệ's conquering of the north.
Đàng Ngoài was mentioned as ān nán guó (安南國) in Chinese records.
