A short look at the life of the founder of the last imperial dynasty of Viet Nam, Prince Nguyen Phuc Anh, later known as Emperor Gia Long, who united the entire country as we know it today and gave it the name Nam Viet - later switched to Viet Nam. He was the founder of the Nguyen Imperial Dynasty which reigned over Viet Nam from 1802 until 1945.
