The Trung sisters had one goal: to free the Vietnamese people from the Chinese domination of the Han dynasty.<\/p>\n<p>The sisters were born into a military family, and their father was a high official. They lived about 2,000 years ago, at a time when Vietnamese women really enjoyed the freedom that was forbidden in later centuries.<\/p>\n<p>They could inherit from their mothers; they could be traders, warriors, or even politicians. Growing up in a family with military traditions, the Trung sisters learned much from their mother who trained them in martial arts. They also improved their knowledge of waging war and looked at fighters who were refining their fighting skills.<\/p>\n<p>The perfect moment to begin a war with a powerful occupant was about to come.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientpages.com\/get-instant-access-to-our-premium-content\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-118638\"
