History
Cam Ranh, known in the ancient Ede language as Kăm Mran,[1][2] is a land closely associated with the development of the Champa culture.[3] Since ancient times, Cam Ranh has been an important military and economic location of the Champa kingdom.[4] During this period, Cam Ranh was a bustling commercial center, with many merchants from neighboring countries coming to trade. The land of Cam Ranh was also home to many ethnic minorities, primarily Cham, Ede, and Raglai people.[5]
In 1939, the French colonial government established the Ba Ngòi Administrative Agency, which was subordinate to the Khánh Hòa province. This agency included parts of the Vĩnh Xương and Ninh Thuận districts.[6][7] During this period, Cam Ranh was built by the French into an important military base, with many fortifications being built, including Cam Ranh Airport.[8][9]
After 1954, Cam Ranh became a part of the Khánh Hòa province of South Vietnam. The South Vietnamese government continued to develop Cam Ranh into an important military base, with many new facilities being built, including Cam Ranh Military Station.[10][11]
In the Vietnam War, Cam Ranh was a major military stronghold of the United States and the South Vietnamese government. The US military built Cam Ranh Air Base into a major military base, with many fortifications being built.[12]
After 1975, Cam Ranh was renamed Cam Ranh town, which is subordinate to the Khánh Hòa province.[13][14][15] On December 23, 2010, the Government issued Resolution 65/NQ-CP to establish the city of Cam Ranh based on the entire area and population of Cam Ranh town.[16][17][18]
