Trương Định (1820 – August 19, 1864), sometimes known as Trương Công Định, was a mandarin in the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam under Emperor Tu Duc. He is best known for leading a guerrilla army in southern Vietnam against the French invasion in defiance of the emperor. He refused to recognise the 1862 Treaty of Saigon that ceded Vietnamese territory to France.

Thank you for teaching us about history.

We need King Socal to go make peace in the south to undo all the misunderstand that some individuals have caused.
