Kingdom of Vientiane - Kingdom of Vientiane

Japanese: ビエンチャン王国 - ビエンチャンおうこく
Kingdom of Vientiane - Kingdom of Vientiane
This refers to the kingdom that had its capital in Vientiane after the Laotian Kingdom of Lan Xang split in 1707. The Kingdom of Lan Xang was founded in the mid-14th century with Luang Prabang in the north as its capital, but in the mid-16th century under King Sethathirat, the capital was moved to Vientiane in the south to avoid the danger of Burmese invasions. In Vientiane, the Pagoda That Luang, a proud example of Laotian architectural beauty, and the Royal Palace were built, and the Emerald Buddha, brought from Chiang Mai in Thailand, was enshrined at Wat Phra Kaew.

ラオスのランサン王国が1707年に分裂して以降,ビエンチャンVientianeを都とした王国をさす。ランサン王国は14世紀半ばに北部のルアンプラバンを都に誕生したが,16世紀半ばのセーターティラート王の時,ビルマ軍の侵入から難を避けるため都を南のビエンチャンへ移した。ビエンチャンにはラオスの建築美を誇る仏塔タート・ルアンや王宮が建立され,タイのチエンマイから招来したエメラルド仏像がワット・プラケオに安置された。
