 Almost all historical accounts agree that it was no one else but Trần Thủ Độ who deserved credit for the birth of the Trần Dynasty, "Khâm định Việt sử Thông giám cương mục" commented that maybe for that reason temple name of the first emperor of the Trần Dynasty was Thái Tông, which was often used for the second emperor of a dynasty, instead of Thái Tổ as usual.Despite his lack of learning, Trần Thủ Độ was praised as a skilled and devoted official of the Trần Dynasty, the ruling dynasty which was found by his very own effort.As a result, the grand chancellor held a position in royal court which was so powerful that he was suspected by some of overruling the Emperor.
