I pick King Sourignavongsa was a best king ever. Most Lao people missed paid attention about this king. All the country surround Lane Xang Were respected ( Keng Kham ) to this king that why it were over 60 years with out any war with any country. During that time Lane Xang were developed more than any surrounding countries included Siam or Thailand.

Yeahhh i kindda agreed with you that during '' Pha chao Souligna Vongsa's Reign,'' But the A-Nachack Lanxang was already strong and well abstalished, especially from the'' First and the Seventeenth's Reigns,'' these two were every strongest leaders, none of the surrounding neighbors wouldn't dare to attack Lanxang.. so after Phachao Souligna Vongsa pass away in 1694, and Lanxang ViengChunh had been run by three Kings, (Tian thala, Nantharath, Sai Ong Hue) during these three's Reign, there's some bad thing going on, ater phachao Souligna Vongsa died and leaving no living sons, so the throne was seixed by (Tian thala), the highest ranking mandarin of the royal palace. and 6 years later, he was over thrown and put to death by a provincial governor name Nantharath, and the News reached Sai Ong Hue, the son of the Souligna Vongsa's brother. who has been living in exile in Annam(Vietnam in the present day) and the same year, 1700, Sai Ong Hue marched on ViengChunh at the head of an army of the Vietnamese soldiers.. he captured the town, and had Nantharath put to death, and proclaimed himself King. and sent his half brother, Thao Long,( known as Ong Long and Ong Boun at that time) to take possession of LuangPhabang in his name.... Also, something happened during Sai Ong Hue's Reign, 1700-1707, The Kingdom of Lanxang has split up into (three) separate Kingdoms, The Kingdom of Vientiane, the Kingdom of Luangphabang, and the Kingdom of Champassak, Oh, man i'm kindda lazy to go on of the story... hope you guys find out for your self.ok. but , one thing i would like all of our lao people out there to know that, if some of you think that lao and Viet are not blood related please read about Souligna Vongsa and Ladsavong Muang Hue(Vei)'s Reign... then you all will know that lao and Viet are not only fight the French and the American together in the wars but related far far back....
