A Study On The Factors And The Influence Of Ming Dynasty Recovered And Abandoned County Annam (AD1407-AD1427)

Historically,Vietnam had been in the ancient Chinese territory for a long time,but it had been independence of a country for several times.In the fifteenth century,the history of Annam(Vietnam)was once regained by Ming Dynasty of China and Annam's independence after 20 years has a lot of enlightenment for the study of Sino-Vietnamese relations.And,because of its special national spirit and geographical location,Vietnam itself is also a representative country in the Confucian cultural circle and the East Asian tributary system.Therefore,based on many questions about why Ming Dynasty recovered and abandoned County Annam,my main research is Ming Dynasty of China recovered Annam in AD1407 and then abandoned Annam,that Annam is independent in AD1427.This paper analyzes the important events in this period from the aspects of national thought,economic,political,military and geographical relations.And from three aspects,I analyze the actual significance and the positive & negative influences of County Annam on the Ming Dynasty.It also analyzes the farreaching influence of Annam's independence on the relationship between Ming Dynasty and Annam at that time.Finally I emphasize the influence of Ming Dynasty recovered and abandoned County Annam on the East Asia's international relations system(the East Asian tributary system)and the international political structure of Southeast Asia.
