Dai Ngu (Vietnam)
The Hồ dynasty is a short-lived six-year reign of two emperors, Hồ Quý Ly in 1400–01 and his second son, Hồ Hán Thương, who reigns from 1401 to 1406
The practice of bequeathing the throne to a designated son (not simply passing it on to the eldest) is similar to what had happened in the previous Trần dynasty andis meant to avoid sibling rivalry.
Hồ Quý Ly's eldest son, Hồ Nguyên Trừng, playa his part as the dynasty's military general
In 2011, UNESCO will declare the Citadel of the Hồ Dynasty in Thanh Hóa Province a world heritage site.
