Trần Anh Tông

Trần Anh Tông (Trần Thuyên; 1276–1320) was the fourth emperor of the Trần dynasty, ruling Đại Việt from 1293 to 1314. Made crown prince in 1292, he succeeded his father Nhân Tông and kept peace with the Yuan, while his general defeated western border raiders.

Once, too drunk to receive his visiting father, he sought scholar Đoàn Nhữ Hài's help in writing a petition for forgiveness, then appointed Đoàn a counselor and gave up drinking.

He mounted campaigns against Champa, and his sister Huyền Trân married the Champa king, extending Đại Việt southward. In 1314 he abdicated to his son Trần Mạnh (Minh Tông) and remained retired emperor until his death.
