The Vietnam Wars - Summary on a Map

[@benmaharaj6854]

One thing missed here is that the USA and South Vietnam didn't fight alone. The United States encouraged other nations to join them, first SEATO members and then through the Many Flags campaign. Australia, New Zealand, Philippines, South Korea, and Thailand all sent troops who saw combat. South Korea in particular sent over 300,000.

21:30 From the perspective of a Vietnamese person who has learned about the history of war. I have a completely different view. In the general offensive in the summer of 1972, North Vietnam's main purpose was to gain advantage on the battlefield, wanting to hasten the United States into negotiations so that America could withdraw all its troops home. Vietnamese historians call it the tactic of "both fighting and negotiating", and they accept all costs on the battlefield, because the Vietnamese understand that while the Americans are here, the power of firepower of the South Vietnamese army will remain. This was one of the regular battles at the division level between the liberation army and the army of South Vietnam - both sides used tanks, artillery, and large infantry forces for the campaign, only the army The South was supported by the power of the US air force. If people around the world know the Vietnam War, they will mention the 1968 Tet General Offensive. But for Vietnamese people, it is certainly impossible to forget the "red summer of 1972" in war memories, in which the battle Quang Tri ancient citadel is a testament to the determination of the North Vietnamese army. The Northern Army was entrenched in this ancient citadel for 81 days and nights. The ancient citadel was only 25 hectares but suffered a terrible amount of bombs (estimated at about 120,000 tons of bombs, of which nearly 5,000 times by B52 aircraft spreading ). .

[@nikkirosenbek5471]

Personally, I think Vietnam's history is probably the most intriguing in the world because it's unique and unusual. The Mongols according to historians are still regarded as the mightiest, deadliest and most feared military force of all time even though they existed more than 8 centuries ago. The Mongol army of roughly 200,000 troops was able to wipe all the Chinese dynasties off the face of the earth and successfully conquered the entire China with a population of over 180 million people in the 13th century! With its unbeatable army, the mighty Mongol Empire peaked its power under the command of the legendary Mongol general and statesman Kublai Khan controlling roughly 28 million sq. km of territory from the Pacific Ocean to central Europe, which is 3 times as large as the land area of the present day China and almost double that of Great Russia. ""Marco Polo met Kublai Khan soon after arriving in Shangdu. He called the great Khan a "Lord of Lords" and "the most powerful man in people and in lands and in treasure that ever was in the world"". However, even the mighty Mongol Empire under the leadership of the "most powerful man in people and in lands" had been unable to conquer the teeny tiny Southeast Asian country known as Dai Viet [present day Vietnam] with a population of over 3 million! In the bloody Bach Dang River battle in 1288, the Vietnamese army led by the Vietnamese Prince Hung Dao triumphantly defeated the unbeatable Mongol army, twice its size and completely sank the entire fleet of Mongol giant warships. The Bach Dang River battle has been the outstanding and incomparable naval battle ultimately destroying the last Mongol invasion of Vietnam. The fact that the Vietnamese prince had fully understood the natural scientific phenomenon of the rising and falling tides of the Bach Dang River and placed the wooden stakes along the river bed to impale and destroy the Yuan China's naval fleet, is still a mystery challenging and intriguing modern historians' understanding. How could the Vietnamese ancestors known as the one and only people in human history more than 1,000 years ago, come up with such an ingenious and unique strategy to totally crush their powerful invaders especially the mightiest and deadliest Mongol army? In fact, the unbeatable Mongol army having been bitterly defeated not once, not twice but three times by the Vietnamese people in the 13th century, eventually ended Genghis Khan's dream of conquering the entire world and forever changed the course of the world history. Again in the 20th century, emulating his ancestor's battles on river against the invading great powers including the mighty Mongol Empire and the powerful Han Chinese dynasties over 600 years ago, the legendary Vietnamese General Vo Nguyen Giap's Dien Bien Phu Battle on land against the French in 1954, finally brought an end to a 120 year domination of the French colonialism in Indochina, which eternally changed the course of human history leading to one of the bloodiest wars of the 20th century-the Vietnam War. In the Vietnam War known as the Great Patriotic War to the Vietnamese people to unify North and South Vietnam, the Ho Chi Minh Trail system is considered "one of the great achievements of 20th century military technology", according to the US National Security Agency. Military experts added, "The legendary Ho Chi Minh Trail running from North to South Vietnam, has been considered a strategic feat, and a unique phenomenon in contemporary world military history". The trail with the length of more than 20,000km (over 12,500 miles) cutting through forests and mountains, is a magnificent construction project in human military history. The Ho Chi Minh Trail is the symbol of the indomitable will of the Vietnamese people to determine to overcome all the brutality of war and all the deadly obstacles of harsh nature on the vast mountains and in the dense forests despite the fact that more than 20,000 Vietnamese soldiers had lost their lives, 6,000 are still missing in action, and more than 30,000 were seriously wounded to keep the vital trail open under the overwhelming pressure of more than 4 million tons of the carpet bombing by the B-52 aircraft. The Ho Chi Minh Trail represents the Vietnamese people's desire for the independence, freedom and unification of Vietnam. Things change and the world changes, but their iron will to unify their war-torn country as one nation, is forever engraved in stone. In the past, even after a 1,000-year domination, all the powerful Chinese Han dynasties had utterly bitterly failed to assimilate the Vietnamese into the Han Chinese. Even big and populous China with over 4.000 years, is still unable to conquer Vietnam. Vietnam is still Vietnam today standing tall. In his book Ending the Vietnam War in Vietnam, Henry Kissinger (RIP) - former US secretary of state and national security adviser wrote: "Since Vietnam, the concept of power has radically changed." "Vietnam represented a unique situation, geographically, ethnically, politically, militarily and diplomatically," he wrote in the memorandum, which was declassified in 1998.

Saying that the Taiping Rebellion “results in many deaths” is a massive understatement. It is often described as the bloodiest civil war in history. The most widely cited sources estimate the total number of deaths during the almost 14 years of the rebellion to be approximately 20 to 30 million civilians and soldiers. Most of the deaths were attributed to plague and famine. Some analysts have claimed that the death toll may have reached 100 million.

Vietnam could have been a great ally of the US. As the video shows that they were never close to Cambodia or China and fought wars against them. But Ho Chi Min wanted independence and America supported them being a colony of France.

I read a book by a ww2 and Vietnam war veteran. I’m actually still reading it and so far I’ve learned that there was no real reason why we were there. We were not allowed to invade north Vietnam because that would trigger ww3 with the soviets and chinese. So we knew that but we still stayed knowing there would be no real peace. The CIA at the time played a big part of transfering 2 million north Vietnamese to the south because they were catholic which would fit the democratic society built by the SMM SAIGAN Military Mission an organization in the 50s that was sponsored by the CIA to do these transfers and change in Vietnamese society so that it would not be communist.

Vietnam War was a civil war between the North Vietnamese Commie terrorists supported by global Commie giants Soviet and China, and the free and prosperous Republic of South Vietnam, just like the North Korean Commie terrorist state versus the free and prosperous Republic of South Korea. The US supported the right side, just like it helped Western Europe, including Germany, and Japan after WW2, and those nations have not only recovered but become economic powerhouses. For the same reason, however, the North Vietnamese Commie terrorists and their brainwashed minions have been very much different from the citizens of the free and prosperous Republic of South Vietnam. Therefore, it's an oversimplification and not really accurate assessment to categorize "Vietnamese" as 1 group.

there is quite a lot of inaccuracy but the video is the least American Bias I have ever seen. 1st the Tây Sơn Rebellion was started by 3 brothers whose family name is Nguyễn, the same as the ruling lord of Cochinchina, so the Clan was also Nguyễn and not Tây Sơn. 2nd, the Trịnh Forces did not ally themselves with the Tây Sơn, Nguyễn Nhạc the eldest brother submitted to the Trịnh lord in order to focus on the remnant of the Nguyễn Lord forces. 3rd, the Treaty of Versailles in 1887 stated that Nguyễn Ánh had to open Đà Nẳng(Tourane) for trade and not seize it to France, and Côn Đảo(Côn Island) and Quảng Nam which include Đà Nẳng were seized to France. 4th Đại Nam under French colonization was divided into 3 administration regions of Cochinchina, Annam, and Tonkin. Cochinchina was a fully-fledged French Colony, Annam was a protectorate, and Tonkin was half a colony and half a protectorate. 5th Bảo Đại had never attempted to reform the country as he might have known what happened to his ancestor Emperor Hàm Nghi the 8th Emperor of the Nguyễn Dynasty, he died exiled in Algeri and he was a twat that only care of his own pleasure as well.

The Americans held their ground, preserved South Vietnam’s independent, and got a signed a peace treaty with North Vietnam under Nixon. The Americans then proceeded to fully leave. Then Nixon had to resign and other domestic political turmoil in the USA occurred. Then North Vietnam invaded again, after America had left, and after they had signed the peace agreement in Paris. The new American president Ford wanted to follow through on the signed agreement’s promise to again aid South Vietnam, in case North Vietnam violated and broke the treaty they signed, but the new Democrat controlled Congress blocked any major actions and aid. At that point South Vietnam was eventually conquered and subjugated. My point is, I’m not quite sure how accurate it is to say that “the North Vietnamese kicked out the Americans.” There’s more of a tight case to be made with the Chinese. However, it does seem that one of China’s goals was to simply bloody Vietnam in someway for them ousting their genocidal communist Cambodian ally. If China was planning regime change as well, thought they were suffering too much resistance, and the Soviet Union allied to Vietnam became too big of a potential compounding factor, then perhaps it could be argued it was more of a Vietnamese victory. North Vietnam definitely kicked out the stupid French though.
