Văn Lang (Hán tự: 文郎) was the first nation of the ancient Vietnamese people, founded in 3079 BC and existing until 258 BC. It was ruled by the Hùng Kings. Its history is mostly myth and legend, as little reliable historical information is available. Hùng Vương as the title of a line of kings and the Van Lang kingdom are attested in Chinese (Ch’in and T’ang dynastic) sources.[1] The people of Văn Lang were referred to as the Lạc Việt (Hán tự: 雒越/駱越/貉越; Chinese: Luòyuè), or sometimes simply the Lạc.

Zhou Dynasty, 1045?-256 bc, also known as Chou, Chinese dynasty that paved the way for the first unification of China in 221 bc. Although the Zhou dynasty was founded in about 1027 BC, the Zhou conquest of the Shang dynasty in about 1045 BC established the Zhou as the supreme political power in China. Most historians date the beginning of the Zhou dynasty to this event, and Zhou historical records show that the Zhou themselves considered this victory to be the beginning of their dynastic reign.
