Answer: A

Throughout the history of the West and Southeast Asia, Thailand and Vietnam have witnessed increasing conflict, especially after the loss of trade ports and the expansion of their influence over Cambodia. This tension led to war between the two countries and profoundly affected the political landscape of the region. The lack of ports and the rule of Thailand and the lethargy and incompetence of the Laotian princes.

With Thailand's loss of important trading ports, particularly Hatian, Vietnamese influence expanded rapidly in Southeast Asia. This situation triggered a strong Thai reaction to Vietnamese expansion and led to subsequent military conflict. [00:00:30->00:01:39]

Jeyon Anouong played an important role in history, and his efforts reflected not only resistance to Thai rule, but also the Lao people's desire and quest for independence. His place in history is widely recognized in Lao culture. [00:01:39->00:01:45]

In Thai historical literature, the Lao princes are seen as losers, yet in the Lao perspective, their spirit of resistance is a legend. Such differences in historical perspectives reflect different interpretations of the same event by different peoples. [00:01:45->00:08:13]

The third contribution of King Andong's reign was the rapid development of the city, especially the city of Vieng. His rule led to a remarkable change in the city's appearance, attracting a large population and resources and becoming a regional center. [00:14:03->00:16:18]

The military strategy of the Nguyen dynasty was criticized as wrong due to its small force facing a vastly outnumbered enemy army. Even after showing courage in battle, it still failed to change the tide of battle and ultimately led to defeat. [00:50:38->00:56:06]

The consequences of the war have not only affected both sides of the fighting, but have also brought about upheaval and displacement of the population. As the war intensified, many innocent civilians suffered great pain and loss. [00:56:06->00:56:45]
