Keo Phim Fa

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nang Keo Phim Fa (originally Keo Kumanne; also Keo Phimpha or Pimpha; full throne name Somdet Brhat-Anya Sadu Chao Nying Kaeva Bhima Fa Mahadevi ; * 1343 in Sawa ; † 1438 in Pha Dieo) was queen of in the last months of her long life Lan Chang and successor to King Kham Koert (ruled 1436 to 1438).

Keo Phim Fa was the eldest sister of King Samsaenthai . She was evidently a great beauty in her youth, but her cruelty became more apparent with age. In the past twenty years she has become a kingmaker through numerous intrigues and murders. In 1438 she finally ascended the throne herself. The Council of Ministers quickly grew tired of their political intrigues and disempowered them. Together with her great-nephew, Wiang Pha (Senapati Luang of Xiang Lor), whom she married, she was abandoned in the wild at Pha Dieo. They died there of malnutrition or were eaten by wild animals.

Overall, the kings Phommathat , Yukhon and Khamtam fell victim to her . According to Keo Phim Fa, a group of wise men ruled the empire until 1441 the youngest son of Samsaenthai , Prince Sai Tia Kaphut , ascended the throne.
