Vietnam: The Complete History of the Country

Embark on an exciting journey through the history of Vietnam—a country where legends are inseparable from real events, and ancient customs naturally coexist with the rhythm of modern life. This book lifts the veil on the mysteries of the past and helps you see Vietnam in all its complex and multifaceted beauty.

Vietnam is a small country in Southeast Asia, whose history is woven from riddles. Dragon people, heroes of legends, rulers, spirits, and warriors “live” on the pages of its past: they fight, enjoy life, and die—almost the same way as ordinary people. And alongside them, people cultivate rice and wheat, build fortress walls, create cities, and lay the foundation of a state…

Mythological plots intertwine with reality and are preserved in the people’s memory. And today Vietnamese people continue to follow ancient rituals and traditions that, at first glance unexpectedly, manage to coexist with Hồ Chí Minhism—the Vietnamese version of Marxism–Leninism.
