Emperor Hiệp Hòa (Hán tự: 協和; also known as Nguyễn Phúc Hồng Dật, 阮福洪佚) was the sixth emperor of the Vietnamese Nguyễn Dynasty and reigned for four months (30 July 1883 - 29 November 1883). He presided over his nation’s defeat by the French navy at the Battle of Thuan An in August 1883, and on 25 August 1883 he signed a treaty which made Vietnam a protectorate of France, ending Vietnam’s independence. For this, he was deposed and forced to commit suicide.[1][2]
