Nakhon Noi
Nakhon Noi (Nakorn Noi, full throne name Somdet Brhat Chao Negara Raja Sri Sadhana Kanayudha ; * in the 16th century ) was king of Lan Chang for a short time in 1582 .
Nakhon Noi was appointed Governor of Nakhon Noi by King Sai Setthathirath I (r. 1548-1571), who also gave him the title of Phragna Nakhon Noi. After the death of King Phra Nga Sen Sulintara Lusai (r. 1572–1575, 1580–1582) he came to the throne, but was forced to resign a short time later and sent as a prisoner to Burma . He was hated by the people for his cruelty. After Nakhon Noi there was an 8 year interregnum and a period of severe instability.
No Keo Kuman , son of King Sai Setthathirath I , was always regarded by the people as the rightful king, and after he was old enough in 1590 a delegation was sent to Pegu to seek his reinstatement from King Nandabayin. No Keo Kuman was released and crowned in Vientiane the following year.
