Deo Nang Toï (Vietnamese: Đèo Nàng Tỏi, 1914–2008) was the daughter of Deo Van Long, the president of the Fédération Taï in North-West Vietnam and Laos under the last years of French Indochina. Following his death in Toulouse in 1975, she assumed his title among the Tai exile community.

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Deo Nang Toï” as vietnamese royalty (1914-2008). This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Nang, Vietnamese and royalty.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1914, 2008, 1975—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1914-06-15. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Nang, Vietnamese and royalty providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Deo Nang Toï”, the useful work is to connect “vietnamese royalty (1914-2008)” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 18, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q1767581. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1914, 2008 and 1975.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
