The Nguyễn dynasty (Chữ Nôm: 茹阮, Vietnamese: Nhà Nguyễn; Hán tự: 阮朝, Vietnamese: Nguyễn triều) was the last Vietnamese dynasty, which ruled Vietnam largely independently from 1802 to 1883. After 1883, the Nguyễn emperors ruled nominally as heads of state of the French protectorates of Annam and Tonkin.
Đăng đàn cung (Hán tự: 登壇宮 lit. melody on the ascent to the esplanade) was the royal anthem of Nguyễn Dynasty. After proclaiming himself emperor, Gia Long ordered a Frenchman J.B. Chaigneau to compose an anthem for him. Chaigneau borrowed the rhythm of "Marche Militaire" by Franz Liszt and composed the "Đăng đàn cung". It was adopted 1802.
