name of Vietnam during the Đinh dynasty). In response, Dowager Empress Dương Vân Nga and the court unanimously enthroned Lê Hoàn to be the emperor of Đại Cồ Việt because the current emperor was too young. After battling the Song army twice, Lê Hoàn (now emperor Lê Đại Hành) expelled the invaders from his realm. As such, the reign of Đinh Toàn came to an end and the Đinh dynasty collapsed in 980. Later years After being dethroned, Đinh Toàn became "Vệ Vương", a noble title similar to that of landlord or some kin of the emperor. By the year 1001, when repressing the rebellion of Cửu Long in Thanh Hóa Province, he was hit by an arrow and died immediately at the age of 27. Nowadays, historical books have named his title "Đinh Phế Đế", which means "the deposed emperor of the Đinh dynasty." Notes References Đại việt sử kí toàn thư.
