Su Quan (English spelling)
A general term for the 12 local feudal lords who ruled over Vietnam in the 10th century, shortly after the country gained independence from China. Vietnam had been under Chinese rule since the 2nd century BCE, but in 938 Ngo Quyen (Wu Quan) defeated the Southern Han Dynasty's intervening army and gained independence. Shortly after Ngo Quyen's death, local feudal lords took control of various regions, leading to a state of division. The most influential of these were Ngo Xuong Si (Wu Changchi) of Pingqiao, Kieu Cong Han (Jiao Gonghan) of Fengzhou, Nguyen Coan (Ryuen Kuan) of Sandi, Li Que (Li Kui) of Chaorui, Nguyen Tu Thiep (Ryuen Shoujet) of Xianyou, Le Duong (Lu Tang) of Hosoe, Nguyen Sieu (Ryuen Chao) of Xi Furie, Kieu Tuan (Jiao Shun) of Huihu, Pham Bac Ho (Fan Baihu) of Tengzhou, Ngo Nhat Khanh (Wu Riqing) of Tanglin, Do Khanh Thach (Du Jingshuo) of Du Dongjiang, and Tran Lam (Chen Lan) of Bukaikou, and 12 other local lords, collectively known as the Twelve Envoys.
