Tây Thành was formerly the 32nd province of Nguyễn Vietnam, encompassing what is now modern-day Cambodia. Its capital was the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh (known to the Vietnamese as "Nam Vang"). It was a special province with a dual system, consisting of Cambodian monarchs who reigned as puppet rulers while a Vietnamese governor resided in Phnom Penh. The province was de facto lost in 1841 and officially abolished in 1847 after peace talks between Thailand and Vietnam concluded dual-suzerainty over Cambodia.
