An important note: many people are pointing out in the comments that Vietnam fought the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia-this is correct but after the Vietnam war. When I refer to the North Vietnamese/Viet Cong supporting the Khmer Rouge this is in 1970 before the end of the war, in the wake of operation menu implemented by President Nixon.
@Sang Nguyen ✅
Can you please make a video on history of Nepal. I would love to see that, thanks.
Some people misunderstand these things! Thank you for your effort
One more thing that some people here dont believe that Vietnam is a part of Nanyue and it should not be included into Vietnam's history. Can you show some proof about that? I appreciate it!
google it for yourself, those things are as much of a secret to Vietnamese as Tianmen to Chinese
Respect to Vietnamese people and warriors from Algeria 🇩🇿. For the record, the Victory of Vietnam war against the colonial France in 1954 under the leadership of Ho Chi Minh in the battle of Dien bien phu was a great source of inspiration to the Algerian revolution because in the Same year the war of liberation against colonial France started in Algeria, 7 years later we gained our independence. Huge Respect to Vietnam 🇻🇳.

Spaghetti God, Vietnam has mastered the art of Guerilla war...
@spaghetti they were pretty tough and awesome at the time huh
Having lived in Vietnam for 6 months, learned the language (and still continue to do so), and talked to a lot of Vietnamese from all aspects of life, I gained a whole new respect for this wonderful nation. They have endured so much yet kept such a peaceful and welcoming mindset. Vietnamese people are among the friendliest and hospitable people I've ever met! Tôi yêu Việt Nam, con người Việt Nam và văn hóa Việt Nam.
Having learned history for 4 years of college, I conclude that Vietnamese people are racist and patriarchal like white settler colonists
exactly - despite all that they've been through, they have a peaceful and welcoming mindset. you said it perfectly.
Hi, German how are you doing now.? I did came Germany 🇩🇪 1 time I stayed there only 2 days 2 nights and we drove back to France 🇫🇷 that 16 years ago I got Vietnamese friends lifted in Germany I hope someday I come back Germany 🇩🇪 ..
And here I am, a Vietnamese trying to learn German. Your language is too hard!
Wow, you did well to learn Vietnamese in 6 months 👏 I knew an aussie guy who spoke excellent VN after 3 years at Hanoi University. 6 months is crazy, you must have an ear for languages
On this rainy day in 2023, I randomly typed Vietnam history on youtube search, and I am so glad this video popped up. I am Vietnamese, and I feel ashamed to say those boring history lessons I learned back in school did not help me retain much of the knowledge. But your video has amazingly captured everything so succinctly and perfectly. I am proud to be a VNese now living in Canada. My country is the best, with breathtaking landscapes, friendly people, mouthwatering food and unbreakable spirits!
how vietnam managed to endure chinese domination, french colonialism, and us imperialism is beyond me.
what a country.
Yep, that's like david vs goliath
I think that having a large part of your country covered in jungles and mountains surely helps to defend against aggressors (seriously, if I were to chose a terrain to defend against an attack Vietnam would be one of my first picks, it's almost perfect)
@@sephikong8323 You really are a very knowledgeable person about our country. If you have read about Vietnam's history, in 1979, China attacked 6 provinces of the northern border of Vietnam, Vietnam pushed back. It was because of the forest and the mountain (it was like a shield to protect my country). France also failed at the Dien Bien Phu battle (its topography is like a pan, above is a forest). One more thing, the climate of Vietnam, tropical rains, many insects in the forest. , the US military was seriously ill.
@@sephikong8323 But I think the most important thing is still the spirit. In our ancient history, the Han people have assimilated all the ethnic groups around them (so you see China is very large) but only Vietnam escaped. Vietnam's first uprising was that of two women against the Han king. Finally is Ho Chi Minh, he had a girlfriend, but because he wanted to help Vietnam escape the rule of French colonialism, he forgot his love. Finally, he does not have a family, every Vietnamese is his child. In 1968, the Vietnamese army died a lot before the attack of the US military. He was very sick and died a year later (1969).
@@chip7335 I am not saying that the people has nothing to do with that, the people is always the core part of a country and its history, but geography does help a lot especially when it comes to warfare. The Vietnamese people probably would not have been able to defend itself the same way had it lived in the steppes for example. But on the opposite not all people would be able to use their geography in the same manner
Vietnam is always in my heart, the best place I ever been, I have a deep respect for all what vietnamese people fought to be what they are now, it makes me feel proud, I hope that one day my people have success of achieve unification once and for all like vietnamese did. Greetings and respect from Argentina.
Thanks

Thank you
I am not from Vietnam, but I have to say thank you so much for making a video on the Vietnam's full history. Normally, students are taught more about the Vietnam War than the history of the country. In fact, I barely knew anything about Vietnam until I watched videos about it and took a look at Wikipedia. So in other words, thank you for teaching me more about a country I did not know much about!
Did you know that in Vietnam, they call it the American war...? 🇻🇳
@@mysterioanonymous3206 actually we normally call it “the war against America”
The Vietnamese are one of the most bravest and most resilient people in the world. What they had to endure to keep their country independent is absolutely amazing and deserving of respect.

Vietnam is my brother of Laos. I love Vietnam from Laos
Souksavanh Silivanh thank you

Vietnamese people only trust our Laos brothers, you have not betrayed our beliefs like the way the cambodia did.
the only war between Viet-Laos which I ever know is Le Thanh Tong campaign ( 1477-1480).
Under Viet's view. It is because Laos support Bon Man ( Muang Phuan)'s rebellion. Le Thanh Tong be considered as the greatest king of Vietnam's history. However, he is very brutal king when at war with any other kingdom. He almost destroyed Lanxang until Lanxang fight back, with the help of Lanna ( and Malay - follow Malay's record). Both Viet and Laos said that they won the war.
* Under Le's view during that period, they see Laos as the betrayer. That is because during Vietnamese uprising against Chinese ( 142X), Laos supported Viet, but suddently allied with Chinese and attack Viet. Although the attack be leaded by some local chieftain, Le dynasty usually see it as the idea from Lanxang kings and some betrayer Vietnamese.
-----------
That is the most terrible war between two nations. Actually, don't have many Vietnamese today really know about that war. They usually see Laos is mysterious nations, and don't really know anything about Laos.
There's so much positive comments about my country
I am truly delighted of your kindness
Never been there but you have good reputation.
@英文蔡蔡子 - So unwise!
This video made me realize just how interesting Vietnamese history is and it's a shame that most people in Europe and the US only know Vietnam because of its civil war.
@@henrikfitch4017 "civil war" is also a dirty political trick of term that America and western world spread. Every war that they evolved in tends to be somehow recognized as "civil war".
I'm from Vietnam, I'm so proud when seeing positive comments about my country and my country myself. Loved this!
Whether comments are positive or negative is not important: common words, like the world, will pass away !
However, that Almighty God so values the heroism of His Vietnamese people that He especially graced Vietnam with apparitions of His Holy and Immaculate mother Mary at LaVang- has Eternal value and perpetual rewards+❤🙏🏼🎆
Pre-historic Vietnam was home to some of the world's earliest civilizations, making the Vietnamese, one of the world's first peoples who had practiced agriculture. With an intriguing history of achieving what others deem impossible, Vietnam is a country like no other. The New York Times wrote, "Vietnam has a history of resisting the world’s great powers. It threw out the French after almost a century of colonization and then handed the United States a humiliating defeat. That same spirit has emerged in its war of wills, this time over China’s attempts to project its growing power closer to Vietnam’s shores." The deadly anti-China riots in Vietnam in 2014 as the result of China's illegal placement of its oil rig in Vietnam's waters, drove more than 40,000 Chinese nationals back to their mainland China. The history of Vietnam’s formidable people and defenses dated well before the Vietnam War and even before the Mongol invasion of Vietnam in 13th century. In fact, it dated back to the war against the Chinese invasion of Vietnam in 300 BC. However, the famous battles of the Vietnamese army against the mighty Mongol Empire have become the most celebrated episode in the history of Vietnam. Scholars regard the Mongol conquest as one of the deadliest invasions in human history. The unbeatable Mongol army had conquered half of the known world, but eventually given itself up to a small country named Dai Viet (currently Vietnam)! In less than 80 years, the Mongol Empire encompassed entire land from the Pacific Ocean to the Danube River. After having successfully conquered Eastern and Central Europe, Middle East, Central Asia, Great Russia, all of China in the 13th century, the powerful Mongol Empire immediately started their southward expansion in Southeast Asia where it finally met its match. Even China was agonizingly defeated and completely conquered by the mighty Mongol army, which by contrast was bitterly defeated 3 times by the resilient Vietnamese. The decisive victory of the Vietnamese army over the invading mighty Mongol army in the bloody battle at the Bach Dang River in 1288 eventually brought an end to the Mongols' invasion of Dai Viet (currently Vietnam) as well as their dream of conquering the entire world. If the Mongol Empire had learned that the Chinese Empires before them had been bitterly kicked out of Vietnam after their 10 centuries of occupation while completely failing to assimilate the Vietnamese, the mighty Mongol Empire would have never even thought of invading Vietnam.

Our lands spread a deep long to China’s territory nowadays. Caused by wars we had lost many lands.

The grace of fatherhood is like Thai Son mountain and the fidelity of motherhood is like Trong Nguon river run. All both places are in China. Why? Not Chineses are our ancestors but it proves that our lands before in the first time are so vast.

Yeah, you are right. so powerful. You are right. Nor your country either other country can cross their face. Don’t dare
Really been interested in this lately. My grandpa fought in the Vietnam war as a soldier for the US Air Force and I recently started dating a girl who’s family is from northern Vietnam, it really has opened my eyes a lot being around her and hearing her point of view on the war and the current state of Vietnam. I really wish they would teach students about the war in the US so we can learn from the horrible events that took place but everything about it is just swept under the rug. I think it is amazing how Vietnam survived Chinese and French colonialism and also an invasion from the US. I’m gonna spend the next few years of my life learning the language and I will eventually travel there
As a nothern viet, I'm glad your gf thaught you horrible things that american did that were swept under the rug. Things like My Lai or like the testimony you can watch on youtube: "vietnam war#3(rape&murder)" were kept unpopular from the mass.
I think any ethnicity can have bad people, vietnamese too. But I do notice US teach history not to avoid repeating mistakes, but it is to manipulate and teach wrong doings of others while portraying themselves as victims or heros. I'm not saying americans are bad. I just don't like the way they teach to their own people like how they don't show parts of history that make them look bad, or undermine the things they did bad while describing wrong doings of others in a more detailed and horrific manner(while they did exact same things), or the hollywood movies during the 20th century portraying asian males as agressive vilain who abuse asian women while american male save her.
You can also search on youtube: "Vietnam War Body Count Was Just Bullshit" as I notice many americans being proud of killing.
In summary, both sides did bad, but I dislike how american media portray reality by pointing fingers and not looking in the mirror.
Have you read Vietnamese War literature? It’s so sad, but written so poetically. Gives you perspective on wartime politics.
I'm Chinese. Mad respect to vietnamese. Throughout the history, Vietnam has defended yourself from some of the most powerful empires. China, Mongol and the U.S. You have maintained your identity.

For the US part, it depends.
and in every game or movie the Vietnamese are supposed to be the monsters and villains of the plot while they where the people that bleed for their nation.
It is a way to legitimize their invasion of a nation and propagate it or quibble history!
@Melroy biju thomas Saying someone deserves to die because of their belief/ideology prove that there's something wrong with your own education.
@Melroy biju thomas the only reason Vietnamese nationalists turned to the reds was because westerners were retardedly racist. So much that blinded them to a potential client state to counter China.
@Melroy biju thomas and that is just stupid. I would rather keep our core values and "not get killed" like Assange.
Democracy my ass.
@Melroy biju thomas tell that to Assange.
I fell in love with Vietnam after spending a month and a half in hanoi, an incredible city. Now 18 months later I'm moving to hanoi indefinitely. Looking forward to learning more of the culture.
Should not be at least 10 more years! We are developing rapidly, rapid urbanization, concentrated population. so dust and smoke from constructions, vehicles and waste make the living environment not good. at least 10 more years!
Hanoi is beautiful, but too polluted now... Sad
Learning the language will help you more, but learning about the culture is also useful
Are you there now? If so, how are you liking it?
Yeah right, we're.... jerks on the internet
Nicely presented... I live in Thailand and been to Vietnam/Laos/Cambodia many times. While in Phonsovan/Laos a few years back it was really sad to visit some of the mine clearing sites - Laos the most bombed country that was never at war. When Vietnam opens up (shortly please) I am flying to Hanoi - buying a scooter and riding Indo-Chine for about 8 weeks. This will include My-Lai : site of the U.S massacre of the local village there. (I read the book years ago). Vietnam is such a welcoming and great place to explore.

Hi, Burmese here. Vietnam is the most unique among all Southeast Asian nations. It's geographically SEA, but culturally, it is closer to Japan, Korea, China and Taiwan. Its culture is the oldest in Southeast Asia, though. Believe me, these guys are the last you want to fight - they endured a lot from difficult hardship. I have been there, with my Australian passport. In Russia they even fight against Chechens and Ingush. Don't mess with them.
Never know what my fellows did in Cherchen and Ingush.
@@ductainguyen9516 There was report back in 2013.
They r indeed closer to East Asian Cultures rather than Southeast Asia. I wasnt born in Vietnam but had a chance to visit my parents birthplace, visited Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand and Korea, I would say the Vnese culture is a lot similar to East Asian countries, prob due to Chinese Influence in ancient eras.
Vietnam join the Chechen war?! Why did I din't know that?
the truth is that china created vietnam. the china- vietnam relation is same as UK-USA. unfortunately, vietnam was forced to lost their own thousands years language/words recently. hopefully, vietnam can bring your own history/culture/chinese back.
Our history is different from Chinese history, 1979 China sent troops to attack the northern border of Vietnam, but they failed. And they recorded in history that they were oppressed by Vietnam, so they resisted.
Is that some kind of a thief crying " Stop thief"? China has dominated Vietnam for 1000 years and that seemed not enough for Chinese government I assumed?
The China goverment always wants to agressive Viet Nam.
I mean, look at China now. One word and say bye bye to your social credits
@@starcatcherksp1517 😂 nice joke
@@wuemeiarts I don't know what the Chinese will do in the future, but more than 50 years ago, Chairman Mao once told one of our leaders that he wanted Southeast Asia. When it comes to Vietnam's leadership, we have frankly affirmed that we will respond if the Chinese try to do it again, that's why China invaded Vietnam in 1979.
being adopted from Vietnam then going back and living there for 6 months, especially when they were competing in the 2018 international cup, gave me such a sense of admiration, pride and hope for my birth country.
they were even celebrating and going ham in the street when they lost, just exemplifying how resilient they are even the face of adversity.
Right. We love the National flag very much. You can see national flags flying everywhere during holidays. Come back to Vietnam, Vietnamese people are very hospitable.

Honestly, how many history that have such strong woman personas like Vietnam? I’m maybe ignorant, but feminists should learn from woman in Vietnam. Woman in Vietnam fought for their own rights using their own wealth and intelligence. Until now, feminist trend is not in Vietnam yet, but I felt woman in Vietnam is stronger than many other countries. Woman just start to work and treat their husbands like their little kids (also give them no authority in family), not going around yelling “make me a sandwich”, lol!

Despite the language barrier, occasionally scammed and the extreme heat in the summer, I didn't mind it at all. What a little country with a magical beauty. The rich history and its amazing cuisines are the reason I fell in love with Vietnam.
Spent a month in Vietnam earlier this year (2018). I've been to 42 countries and it might be my favourite. Highly recommend everyone add it to their travel list.
why did you leave?
I mean...he came to visit...?😂
I was 13 when our family (all 5) got off our cruise ship in Saigon and spent the day there, This was June 6 1963, and we left the day before the 1st Buddhist monk poured kerosene on himself and lit himself on fire. I remember seeing the news in the paper when we got to Singapore the day after! This was during the time of the S. Vietnamese Dictator Diem. This made me even more a pacifist of NOT getting involved in Vietnam at all - I saw all the hate for Caucasian people by the locals in Saigon! There was no freedom and that was why Diem got assassinated in Nov/1963. I saw all this BEFORE the US military even got involved in 1964 against all advice not to!
Willie Daniels yep, America should not ever involved in our war, and they even support the ngo dinh diem, who was a ruthless dictator and both the north and the south vietnam want to get rid of him. But instead helping us, America drop a ton of bomb on us. Our people is still suffering from agent orange till this day🙁😢
Willie Daniels well if no Caucasian had hurt us why would we hate them? But its in the past now and we are now open to any friendly and respectful visitor!

Looking back to the past, There was no choice for them Vietnam had to fight for survive, If Vietnam didn't fight Khmer Champa they gonna lose their ancient to china. beside invaded to South west, Nothing they could do. Nothing to blame Vietnam or Thailand. While We Khmer was the strongest empire we also invaded champa, lavo keep stand for thousand year , Yet since the war between Khmer Tai and Viet. we lost the most to our civil war. After Angkor era Some of our ancestor were weak while Tai and viet strong. If we look back to the past we should feel pitifully to each other khmer and viet. Our saddest historic is a beautiful historic for remembrance. I hope no more war from today and we have to move on as SEA to step on the west competition. Vietnam gone so far right now and proud to your history and present. From Cambodian [Angkorian]
We have a history of competition with each other. you're right. But now we think of campuchia as brothers. But perhaps Cambodian youths think we are enemies. is a supporter of genocide. and Cambodia should be careful with China. They never give up the invasion of Vietnam. Vietnam is the only shield of Cambodia
as vietnamese , i always love and respect KHMER BROTHER, there are many khmer people still living in in southern provinces of Vietnam and i love Khmer traditional , khmer food , ....viet-khmer brotherhood ...

Polpot is the genocide dictator, China and Thailand supported Polpot, only Vietnam was subjected to abusive criticism and sanctions, but Vietnam still helped Cambodia to get rid of Polpot, I read an article. The News Time newspaper stated that Vietnam alone had just hit the southern Polpot and the Chinese north, the whole country was embargoed. How can Vietnam do that? they won. I also know Vietnam helped Cambodia regain the temple from the Thailand-Cabodia border war, helping Laos to protect the border in the Thailand-Laos war.
It's a good story but we didn't help them that much either. My grandpa was part of the people that invaded (for lack of a better word) Cambodia. After Pol Pot's regime ended, we set up a puppet government that ended 10 years later. Older Cambodians still hold a grudge over the puppet government and there's still a conspiracy theory that the Cambodian government is still being controled by Vietnam.
I'm Cambodian, all about this news which you have read is all not real, Vietnamese is not good as you think.
Remember that: Cambodians never kill Cambodian because we all believe in Buddhist.
Vietnam plays the game against the US successfully, and the real history is Vietnam just wants to swallow Cambodia's land. Just my recommendation, in case you want to understand more detail and clearly define, please take your time to read more articles related to Vietnam and Cambodia. we're not friends but we're enemies.
@@sophasum95 we stopped the puppet government a long time ago. If you keep thinking like that, there will never be reconciliation. No one under 50 in Vietnam considers Cambodia an enemy, we live in a authoritarian country, the government's actions do not represent what we want.
In case you forgot, we are also Buddhist, the communists in government aren't.
@@phank.s.4052 I understand brother, I will keep in mind and the only way I have to do now is to improve my skill, knowledge, and experiences rather than complain about the government.
anyway, nice to know you brother.
Sopha Sum Imagine no offense, Right know, If I invade ur country and murder your people and cut the head off. What would you do ? Polpot was do the same as I do.
We helped you because We want you to get rid of China. As a brothers Vietnam, China was colonized us and we don’t want the same as Cambodia became China. You could hate us but we do the best.
Good Job Epimetheus!!💖🤣👌❤
Sending love from Vietnam I’m very happy of my country for being strong and fighting back from some country’s trying to take over Vietnam and trying to take our stuff I’m glad Vietnam is still standing strong with amazing people and amazing foods ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇻🇳
I had been to Vietnam for many times.it's hot and beautiful. although some Vietnamese would lie to foreigners for money,ask. foreigners higher price,I still feel most of Vietnamese are very kind,they help me without any profits.some Vietnamese left a deep impression in my heart and now I still can't forget them.I loved a Vietnamese girl very very hard,so then I love all Vietnamese,everytime I saw a Vietnamese in China,I would miss her.I would help every Vietnamese who were in trouble in China when I see them.

Get out of tourist spots you'll be fine. Remember to ask the price before purchasing or using a service. It's a good idea to have police hotline in case you're charged higher than listed price.
You are very kind, hope your heart heals and good karma always smile upon good people.
Vietnamese people are friendly and easy going for the most part. They mostly are angry at the Chinese government for trying to invade Vietnam. I grew up in the US and actually have many Chinese friends here.
I am Vietnamese, we are welcome you to my country anytime.

This country's getting attention of the world year by year since 2010 by it's economy and more. Before that people only know about Vietnam by the scar
of war .
Because it a cheap labor that all sweatshop for the rich counrty not old nothing new .

how are you doing today ??
Oh Lord. Vietnamese have gone through a lot of wars. all the best to them

Good job friend, nice video, appreciate the education
I enjoyed this video, as Vietnam is my favourite country and I lived there for many years, but I was expecting to see the rest of their history up until at least when they freed Cambodia from the Khmer Rouge in 1979 and then were immediately invaded by the Chinese that same year, yet managed to defeat China as well. Those seem like important aspects to me. ❤ 🇻🇳
I have no idea China invaded Vietnam again in 1979 and lost 🤣.
@@A.T.Cyou should read news from both sides.
The northern of Vietnamese are really similar to southern Chinese, cause they were originally the same. If you look into the history, you ‘d better split nation and land. Cause they are different things.
China entered Vietnam because the Vietcong were true assholes giving Loas a full "Khemer Rouge" going-over intending to subjugate Laos.
@@williom4594 Get out Chinese.
Vietnam is the beautiful country love from Indonesia
Thanks
As someone who was born and lived in Vietnam for 16 years, I gotta say, you summed up everything we learned from 3rd to 12th grade history classes lol I’m impressed (I left after 10th grade but the remaining history classes would just go in-depth into lesser known battles during the modern wars, and propagandas) and I appreciate the use of tonal marks on all of the names too! Great video!
Thanks for this interesting video💙
Nice video with no bias info.
Recently visited the beautiful Vietnam city hopping from south to north. The country is so beautiful with so much virgin and pre-developed land. The country has so much energy with people and their motorbikes out and about and everywhere.
So glad visited before it got too developed or westernized and lost its natural beauty.
Thanks
I like it when you say "their motorbike out and about everywhere.." 😆 I kinda love that means of transportation, to be able to connect to nature and people more. Sitting in car feels like being trapped in a metal box going at an insane speed not to give a fk about the in-time traffic situation. Feels like car and -inside-a-box.. lovers want to create delusional bubbles for themselves!
Sending love and respect to Vietnam, a country that has gone through so much including constant Chinese invasions, French colonialism, Japanese imperialism, and even the Vietnam War. As a South Korean whose country also had to deal with constant foreign invasions and communism, my heart goes out to Vietnam. 🇻🇳🇰🇷💕💕💕
In fact, I believe Vietnam was so much more ferocious and brave in many instances, such as dealing with the biggest bully of Asia - China - and the Mongol invaders.
Much respect to the Trung sisters 🙏
Thank you. We Vietnamese see South Korea as a role model and a attraction of pop culture. I'm glad that South Koreans knew about us a lot. Hope that Korea will be one again like Vietnam.
@@angkhoanguyen6114 I truly think the Trung Sisters' true story should be shared across the world, as it is incredible! 💖
Thank you! I hope that Korea will be one again like Vietnam, too, but I hope that it will be united under SOUTH Korea, not under North - the current government wants the latter and it's very gross! :(
I pray that North Korea's communist dictatorship will be put to an end so that people within the territory will be freed and that South Korea and neighbors like Vietnam won't be threatened by the nuclear weapons.
Your entire culture is heavily influenced by China.
@@rkim9117 , love for South Korea and Vietnam.
@@charles8769There are major differences
Very informative video!
Great presentation!
Of course the Vietnamese don't call it the Vietnam war, they called it the American war. 😀 Love the country.
of course! Americans call it Vietnam war because they do not want to call it the Vietnam war of aggression. Vietnamese people fight against Americans so they call the anti-American resistance!

I hope all Asean brothers and sisters would unite to keep away foreign threats. Dreaming of an alliance of forces that will be called SEA security force... :)

ASEAN is ONE! Try to keep it that way, buddy! Love you!
No, they went to war with the government over a dispute between a government soldier and a peasant. China crushed them like a tiny revolt.
Your dream never became true. Good luck. VN do not need ally. Ally may be bring trouble to each. We should better self protect.
Thank you ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you friend. We are Asean. We need stick and protect our community
We thanks your unique channel of telling the core history of Việt Nam.
Very informative thanks a lot
I am Polish of Russian origin and I have a great sense of sympathy to them. Ignore those Cambodian and Chinese haters, Vietnam is, and always, like our distant cousin for its dream to see their nation free from oppression.
@Surini N I am Russian origin but I largely don't like Russian government overall. I think it is dangerous and cunning. On the other hand I dislike Chechens for its radicalism, they have caused troubles everywhere they go.
Cambodia doesn’t have oppression and I don’t hate vietnam not everyone does
My dear friend the feeling is mutual, Vietnamese toward the Polish people.
We have so much love, sympathy and respect for the Polish people. The resilience of the Polish to withstand adversity matched that the resilience of the Vietnamese people.
2 years ago I have visited Poland on my pilgrimage through Krakow and Warsaw, that trip has changed me forever. Especially my stop at the Shrine of Divine Mercy. First, what a beautiful country!!! Second, I’ve watched the Polish people with their Catholic faith and tradition both young and old. Especially I’ve witnessed the people love and venerated to Black Madonna of Częstochowa, at a very early morning and a late night mass. Around 9:00pm The church’s courtyard was still fully packed with young adult and children, my heart was full of joy and for a few minutes I thought of my country Vietnam. I prayed that one day I can see the devotion and love for God throughout Vietnam too. May God protect Poland and watches over Her.
No Chinese hate Vietnam, it is Vietnamese who hate China. China even doesn’t care Vietnam plz. Vietnam betrayed China when it gained independence, that’s disgusting.
@@quasar7055 China claimed half of Eastern Europe as China based on Mongol Empire. That's more "betrayal", disgusting China.
As a Vietnamese student, I can say that history is one of the hatest subject in school. We have to study alot. To many events during 4000 years of history. This video is very helpful, it summerize what i have to learn in 12 years of school.
Same my brother
Too many thing going on
You mean: one of the "most hated" subject ?
I was once always 😴 in historical class. But believe me when you get older you will love our history!
Personal preference my guy. I like Lịch Sử, but fuck hóa and lý
Just want to point out that in 0:39, the picture of a jar used to represent the Sa Huynh culture is actually a Philippine burial jar called the Manunggul Jar. You can do a quick search to see more pictures that look exactly like it.
Good job. Thank you!
I'm very impressed how much important information you fit in a short video that is very easy to follow and high clarity. bravo
Thank you, I am glad you thought so, that is what I try my best to do :)
I'm pissed there are still communist countries
they're hot tho

Your talent for cartography is sublime!
I'm very grateful that you're a foreigner to learn and make videos about Vietnamese history. I'm also very proud that my small country is so strong and heroic. Everyone can read Đại Việt Sử Ký Toàn Thư to know what our country went through and against powerful forces, dynasties and armies.
P/s: Hoang Sa Truong Sa belongs to Vietnam.
Your country is SO strong and heroic. And the people are incredibly kind and welcoming to foreigners despite the horrible experiences of foreigners invading. It is truly remarkable.
As a Vietnamese-Cham American I appreciate this video to learn more about where my family came from. I’ve visited the Cham villages and Saigon because that is where my family lived
In Vietnam,where the village malay cham?
@@user-bh1go1gz4x I think the cham went to Malay as refugees after Vietnamese invasion

I think Vietnam is kind of underrated. They been through so much as far as history goes.
yeah ...and people still look down to us :v denied everything we did with the reason - terrains , jungles etc... and chinese think we good only because of mix with their blood :))) living as Vietnamese is living a life that people around the world tell you that "you just a slave born can do nothing but obey" ...but then we still here , buy Chinese stuff , selling good for USA , import weapons from Russia , why our state havent been UNSC yet
@XDranzer000 ok. agree , im not know alot about politic ...but in the past till now east Asian have a trdition of holding their family name pride (for example my self is Nguyen Duy clan but i dont need to have Nguyen Duy in my name) , the previous generation for my point of view is just my ancestors so that why i think about the word "we" since im Vietnamese and have 1 ancient ancestor is Hung king just like every Vietnamese have (even Vietnamese immigrants) . Thank for your advise .
XDranzer000 from your comment you’re NOT Vietnamese. Usually Chinese sounds like you. Vietnamese never started anything, we only defend. Chinese started wars with Vietnamese since thousands years ago for thousands years. It’s still happening NOW in Vietnam invading and killing Vietnamese including stealing our natural resources, destroyed our lands and sea life. “Doesn’t concern directly...” your words right? proved you are Chinese but pretend to be neutral. I agreed with you about Nguyen Quang Hung being young.
@@jennienguyen7137 yeah , Vietnamese only defense , that aggressive behavior belong to DongLao (Eastern Laos empire) :))))))))

hey, now you can comeback
Few days after 2020 Vietnamese Reunification Day, this video was on my recommendation. Good one, and the best comment section i've ever read ! Thank you for making this Epimetheus, and all of the informative comments down below !
Those sisters sound like badasses. To bad they met there ends like that :(
True
Thank you! We take great pride in those historical female figures. My high school is named after them :) Also my hometown was founded by a woman soldier who followed Trưng sisters as well
Indeed. We Vietnamese venerated them like demi-goddesses
Patriotism has no gender man. Unfortunately we still live in a patriarchy society. And SJW isn't making things better.
And its the reason why Vietnam doesn't have a gender imbalance like China. These Chinese only want to breed males to conquer people of different ethnicities and assimilate them. Vietnamese women hold swords to command respect from other men while Chinese women hold umbrella to court other men.
I am vietnamese, i just wanna express our gratefulness to Lao, Cuba, Russia, they are considered to be the greatest brothers of us during the history.
😘
Thank for this video ❤🇻🇳
Hey Guys, just found out there were descendents of Trưng sisters who fled to Indonesia and became the Minangkabau ethnic there. A pretty strong ethnic group with its own identity. Though they are different from modern Vietnamese, some traits still remain the same. As the first daughter is called Turun Cicik (Trưng Trắc) and the second daughter is called Turun Nye (Trưng Nhị), and the first daughter will be the ruler. Also their traditional clothes and religions share many similarities with modern Vietnamese people.
Though in Wikipedia, no sources has linked the Minangkabau to ancient Vietnamese yet, it was 2000 years ago.
Minangkabau ethnic only small percent, the most dominant ethnic in Indonesia is Javanese : 40% of population, Sundanese : 15%. Other than these two are minorities.
Sau thất bại của Trưng Vương, rất nhiều dân tộc Việt đã di cư về phương Nam như người Thái ở Thái Lan hiện giờ. Có thể bạn nói đúng, vẫn còn các nhánh nhỏ khác ở phương nam

nah why would we wanted to compete with china + we to small , if anyone can compete it with china it will be india in the future if they get they act together + to Chinese people lol why so jumpy you have a much larger problem with America and india in the future well with Europe and japan / korea / Australia too lol better focus more on those who can fuk you up , they alone wont be a threat to china but united they will be super threat :) remember Germany Nazi and how it lost , same for soviet , that what made the American great they have a large alliance and allied that if they truly aim at you , you will be fuk over time , will be fun watching the future if we gona have ww3 and all go back to stone age or we gona see another soviet style losing ( either America lost or china lost , let see )

I like that you didn't neglect Champa, which is sometimes overlooked in discussions of Vietnamese history
Yeah Champa is pretty awesome and a lost empire still in some ways in that we know more about them from their enemies rather than what they said about themselves (kinda like Carthage)
Its kill or be killed situation and Dai Viet made sure that the Cham will never be able to attack Dai Viet again. Besides many Vietnamese have partial Cham ancestry, especially the Central Vietnamese. At the end of the day, Muong, Kinh, Cham, Khmer are all united into one nation from 3 kingdoms.
rip champa :'(
release champa pls
anythingnew culturally it would be more like Cambodia
Bharat people with Hindu. Malay Islanders with Islam. Champa Malay with Buddhism.
