The Battle of Vijaya (Vietnamese: trận Đồ Bàn) between Đại Việt and the kingdom of Champa was a siege of Vijaya, the Cham capital, in 1377.[1] The Vietnamese forces were defeated and the Đại Việt emperor, Trần Duệ Tông, died as a result of the battle.[2]
The death of Trần Duệ Tông was a turning point for Trần dynasty and Đại Việt. Po Binasuor attacked from the north, and successfully captured the Đại Việt capital of Thăng Long.[2]
