a kingdom of Asia beyond the Ganges; bounded on the north, by China; on the east, by Tonquin and Cochin-China; on the south, by Cambodia; and on the west, by the kingdom of Siam, and by the territories of the king of Ava. This country is full of forests, and abounds in rice, fruits, and fish. The inhabitants are well made, robust, of an olive complexion, and mild in their disposition; but very superstitious, and much addicted to women. Their principal occupation is tilling the ground and fishing. The king shows himself but twice a year, and has large revenues from the elephant's teeth found in his dominions. Their religion is a kind of idolatry, and much the same as in China. Langiona is the capital town.
