Vietnam: Land of the Southern Viets

VIETNAM IS ONE OF THE MOST INTRIGUING NATIONS OF SOUTHEAST ASIA, WITH A FASCINATING HISTORY.

Vietnam has fought for its freedom for 1000 years. For much of that time, China has been the enemy. From time to time, other invaders have arrived, and been dispelled.

Nonetheless, the culture and religion of Vietnam does seem to be derived from China. They use chopsticks, they eat rice, and they used to read and write Chinese ideograms.
