		Luang Prabang, still a vassal of Siam in the late nineteenth century, also sought French protection as a result of the depredations of marauding warlords from the borders of China.

		Vat That in Luang Prabang was historically connected with the "Vang Na", the front of the palace, compared with Vat That Luang in Luang Prabang, historically connected with the "Vang Louang", the central palace, and the remains of King Sisavang Vong rest there in a large stupa.
