Somdach Veang Thiounn (Khmer: ឧកញ៉ា វ៉ាង ជួន, romanized: Oknha Veang Thiounn, April 8, 1864–September 1946) was a Cambodian state official of the Khmer nobility during the French protectorate of Cambodia who had a lasting influence on Khmer historiography through the Cambodian Royal Chronicles. While he has been described as the shogun of the French protectorate[1] and a "comprador feudalist",[2] others have praised his long service to the Kingdom of Cambodia, as "the epitome of the colonial subject who quickly saw how to turn the new regime to an advantage":[3]
