First, the overview of Viet Nam
Vietnam, whose full name is the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, is located at the southeastern tip of the Indochina Peninsula and surrounded by the sea on three sides, bordering Guangxi and Yunnan in China to the north, Laos and Cambodia to the west, and the South China Sea to the east. The country is narrow and long, with a coastline of more than 3,260 kilometers
The ethnic group is dominated by the Jin ethnic group, the population will reach 98.47 million in 2022, and it is said that the population will exceed 100 million this year, and Vietnam's GDP will be 409 billion US dollars in 2022, and the per capita will be about 4100 US dollars

Second, Vietnam's relationship with China
In that year, after Qin Shi Huang unified the Central Plains, he sent troops south to conquer the Baiyue region, and set up three counties in the area of today's northern Vietnam. Since then, Vietnam's relationship with China has begun
Because Vietnam was too far away from the political center of the Chinese Central Dynasty, Vietnam had always maintained a close relationship with China, and when the Central Dynasty was strong, they came to call it a subordinate
The Central Plains Dynasty was divided and civil strife did not have time to take care of time, and Vietnam took sides and became independent king, which lasted for thousands of years, and by the time of the Song Dynasty, because the Song Dynasty faced a strong threat from the north militarily
Vietnam finally freed itself from the control of the Central Plains Dynasty and became a vassal state until it became a French colony in the late Qing Dynasty.

Third, Vietnam's poignant modern history
After the decline of the Qing Dynasty in the middle and late periods, Vietnam gradually became a French colony, and although the French mainland was already occupied by the Germans, the French colonization of Vietnam continued until 1945
In 1945, fearing that the French colonial authorities would assist other countries in entering Vietnam, which was still Indochina, Japan staged a coup d'état to replace France on March 9
In this way, ran France and came to Japan. But it was 1945, and Japan was on its way. Japan announced its unconditional surrender in August of that year, hastily ending its short-lived rule over Vietnam
The Communist Party of Vietnam at that time, headed by Ho Chi Minh, took the opportunity to launch the August Revolution at the same time as Japan's surrender, and issued a declaration of independence in Hanoi, reclaiming power from Japan and abolishing the monarchy (at that time, the Nguyen Dynasty had always existed in Vietnam as a puppet regime) and established the Democratic Republic of Vietnam from French colonization
France had just risen from under the feet of the Germans, but the nature of that centuries-old colonial empire was revealed
The French quickly invaded Vietnam again in an attempt to restore their colonial rule, but France was not the France of the past, and Vietnam was not the Vietnam it once was
From 1945 to 1954, after nine years of bitter war, the Vietnamese finally beat the French down
Is it like China's War of Resistance? [Cover face]
North and South Vietnam divided by the 17th parallel
However, the regime established by the Vietnamese Communist Party only controlled the North Vietnamese region, and in southern Vietnam, the South Vietnamese regime was supported by France and then the Americans!
This is very similar to the situation on the Korean Peninsula, a proxy war between the Eastern and Western camps!
And this war, a dozen is 20 years, in the end the South Vietnam supported by the Americans failed, and in 1975, the Vietnamese Communist Party achieved the reunification of the North and the South! The Socialist Republic of Vietnam was established today!
The end of the war did not bring peace to Vietnam.
Subsequently, Vietnam fought two more wars with Cambodia and China!
One was the Cambodian-Vietnamese War or the Third Indochina War. From December 25, 1978 to October 23, 1997, this dozen is almost 20 years!
One is what Chinese history calls the self-defense counterattack war against Vietnam, which was fought from 1979 to 1989! This dozen is another ten years!
What is suffering, Vietnam's modern history can really be regarded as suffering!
After the end of World War II, China also fought a civil war for several years, and the Korean battlefield and the counterattack war against Vietnam and the counterattack war against India were not so deep for the Chinese people as a local war!
After the end of World War II, the Vietnamese fought France, then the United States, and then China!
It wasn't until the 90s of the last century that it really came to the era when they could build peacefully [cover their faces]
Counterattack in self-defense against Vietnam
Fourth, Vietnam's economic and political reform has gone from learning from China to forging its own path of reform
As a political party consistent with the ideological concepts of the Communist Party of China, the Communist Party of Vietnam has just been learning from China's reform and opening up on the road of reform and strengthening
From the introduction of the Foreign Investment Law in 1987, to the passage of the Private Enterprise Law in 1990, to the abolition of collective ownership in 1997, Vietnam has put land privatization ahead of China.
In recent years, Vietnam's political system reform has been bold and innovative!
First, the household registration system was abolished
Civil servants operate on a contract basis, and all cadres' assets must be made public
Under the concept of one-party democracy, free elections and trade unions are formed!
This series of reforms did not bring unrest in Vietnam, on the contrary. This has become the most important factor in Vietnam's strong GDP growth in recent years!

So what are the prospects for Vietnam's development now?
Through this series of reforms, not only has Vietnam's economy and society developed rapidly, but also made optimistic predictions about Vietnam's future prospects
According to the International Monetary Fund's forecast, Vietnam's GDP will jump from 37th in the world to 27th in the world in the next five years!
GDP will reach $726 billion from $406 billion
More than the current economies of Belgium, Sweden, Argentina and so on
Is Vietnam's current development and future development impressive?
I'm just an old farmer who loves to blow shells, but to be honest, I'm really worried about whether Vietnam will become the second Japan next to China?
Just blow the shell, don't spray if you don't like it! [Cover face]
