Etymology[edit]
Sino-Vietnamese word from 越南, composed of 越 (“Yue”) and 南 (“south”), altered from Nam Việt, originally a small kingdom in present-day northern Vietnam, ruled by Zhao Tuo during the 2nd century BC. Nam Việt was once considered for a new name by Emperor Gia Long, but altered at the behest of the Qing dynasty, to which the Nguyễn dynasty was a vassal state.[1]
