Norodom (Khmer: នរោត្តម French: Norodom I), born Ang Voddey (Khmer: អង្គវតី ) (3 February 1834 – 24 April 1904), was the King of Cambodia from 1860 to his death in 1904. He was the eldest son of King Ang Duong and was a half-brother of Prince Si Votha and King Sisowath. In 1863, he invited French protection to fend off Annam and Siamese aggression. He was elected to the throne in 1860 but would not be crowned king until 1864 due to missing royal artefacts. He has been credited with saving Cambodian sovereignty, but the country would remain under French rule for almost a century. His reign of 43 years and 188 days is the longest in the modern era. He was succeeded by his brother after his death.
