Lac Long Quan (literally "Dragon Lord of Lac”) is considered the second Hung king of the Hong Bang Dynasty of ancient Vietnam (known then as Van Lang and before that as Xich Quy).
In modern day, his life is mixed with many legends. Quan's wife, Au Co, gave birth to a sac containing 100 eggs from which 100 children were born; this is the origin of the story of the 100 Vietnamese family names. One day Lac Long Quan told Au Co: "I am descended from dragons, you from fairies. We are as incompatible as water is with fire. So we cannot continue in harmony." This said, the husband and wife parted. The man went to the south seaward with 50 of their children, while his wife went to the northern mountainous region with the other half of the clan. The eldest son, who followed his mother, later installed himself as Quan's seccessor.
