APEX AGE: EXPLORATION

Add the Dai Viet civilization to your collection in Sid Meier's Civilization® VII!*

This content is available for individual purchase, but is also available as part of the Right to Rule Collection DLC bundle featuring two leaders, four civilizations, four Wonders, and one badge cosmetic.

Vietnamese history is a dance of resistance and expansion. The medieval Đại Việt kingdom, especially under the Trần Dynasty, stood against Mongol invasions, even as it expanded southward into Cham lands. This dialectic of resistance and conquest led to the creation of a unique Vietnamese culture, one influenced but not dominated by Chinese sources, and a strong sense of identity.
