What is the event through which Thai Binh Province was officially established?

Thai Binh Province was officially established in 1890 when the Governor-General of Indochina issued a Decree to establish Thai Binh Province.

Upon its official establishment, Thai Binh Province comprised the districts of: Thanh Quan, Thuy Anh, Dong Quan, Truc Dinh (formerly Chan Dinh), Thu Tri, Vu Tien, Tien Hai, Phu Duc, Quynh Coi (part of Nam Dinh Province), and Than Khe (part of Hung Yen Province). In the 6th year of Thanh Thai (1894), two additional districts, Hung Nhan and Duyen Ha (part of Hung Yen Province), were annexed back to Thai Binh.

Thai Binh Province has been officially established for 135 years as of now (2025). Today, Thai Binh is a province with a robustly developing economy, especially in agriculture and industry. Additionally, this land is also famous for its unique cultural heritage, attracting tourists both domestically and internationally.
