Siamese-Vietnamese War (1831-1834)

Siamese-Vietnamese War (1831-1834)

The Siamese-Vietnamese War of 1831-1834, also known as the Siamese-Cambodian War of 1831-1834, started when Siam tried to conquer Cambodia but was repelled by Vietnam.

When Ang Chan II (1791-1837) became king of Cambodia in 1812, Siam sent its forces into northern Cambodia and then southward, crushing the Cambodians at the Battle of Kompong Chang and forcing Ang Chan to escape to Vietnam in 1832. The Siamese also threatened Vietnam, heading toward Chau Doc and Vinh Long before the Vietnamese counter-attacked. A rebellion broke out in Cambodia and eastern Laos (under Siamese and Vietnamese controls) and simultaneously a 15,000-man Vietnamese army advanced against the Siamese (1833) and supported Ang Chan in arriving at Udong, the Cambodian capital (north of Phnom Penh). With the retreat of the Siamese, Vietnam gained almost total control over Cambodia.
