Trần Hưng Đạo
Trần Hưng Đạo (; 1228–1300), real name
Trần Quốc Tuấn (陳國峻), also known as
Grand Prince Hưng Đạo (''Hưng Đạo Đại Vương'' – 興道大王), was a Vietnamese royal prince, statesman and military commander of
Đại Việt military forces during the
Trần dynasty. After his death, he was considered a saint and deified by the people and named
Đức Thánh Trần (德聖陳) or
Cửu Thiên Vũ Đế (九天武帝). Hưng Đạo commanded the Vietnamese armies that repelled
two out of three major Mongol invasions in the late 13th century. His multiple victories over the
Yuan dynasty under
Kublai Khan are considered among the greatest military feats in Vietnamese history.
