P'an-Lo T'ou-Ts'iuan

Who is P'an-Lo T'ou-Ts'iuan?

P'an-Lo T'ou-Ts'iuan or Bàn La Trà Toàn in Vietnamese was king of Champa from 1460 to 1471, the year of the fall of Champa. In 1471, in a reaction to a Cham raid against Hóa Châu, king Lê Thánh Tông of Đại Việt, invaded Champa. P'an-Lo T'ou-Ts'iuan then called the Khmers for help. The Khmers, however, refused because they hadn't forgotten the destruction of Angkor by the Cham king Indravarman VI. The Vietnamese then attacked the Cham capital of Vijaya, murdering 60,000 and imprisoning another 30,000. This was the final defeat of Champa, which then became a minor Viet province.
