Phan Bá Vành's Rebellion (1825–1827), also known as the Peasant Revolt of 1825-1827 was a large revolt of Vietnamese peasants under the leadership of Phan Bá Vành against the court of emperor Minh Mạng in the 1820s. The rebellion spread across Red River Delta, initially crushed government forces, captured numerous cities and towns in the region, and Phan Bá Vành proclaimed himself as king. Outraged, the emperor sent an army to the north, suppressed the revolt and executed Bá Vành in 1827.
