Person
Lê Long Đĩnh
Lê Long Đĩnh was the last ruler of Vietnam's Early Lê dynasty, reigning from 1005 to 1009 after killing his brother in the succession struggle that followed the death of their father Lê Đại Hành. Vietnamese chronicles remember him as cruel and so ill that he held audience lying down, hence the name Lê Ngọa Triều. On his death the court chose Lý Công Uẩn, founder of the Lý dynasty.
