Ái Châu Province


Ái Châu was a historical province of Vietnam under the third Chinese domination roughly equivalent to Thanh Hóa Province today.
In 989 after an upland chieftain, named Dương Tiến Lục, had reported to Lê Hoàn that local militia from the aboriginal prefectures of Ái Châu and Hoan Châuse planned to resist control, the king authorised an attack on the prefectures.
