Vietnam, officially named the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (SRV), is located in Southeast Asia and covers an area of 331,212 square kilometres with a population of 99 million individuals, ranking it as the fifteenth-most populous nation globally. It shares borders with China to the north and Laos and Cambodia to the west, with maritime borders with Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The largest city in Vietnam is Ho Chi Minh City, previously known as Saigon, while its capital city is Hanoi.
Dating back to the Paleolithic age, Vietnam has a rich history, with the first states established in the Red River Delta during the first millennium BC. Northern and Central Vietnam came under Chinese control during the Han dynasty from 111 BC until the emergence of the first Vietnamese dynasty in 939. The successive dynasties were influenced by Chinese Confucianism and Buddhism and expanded southward, conquering Champa in the process. The Nguyễn dynasty surrendered to France in 1883, and after the August Revolution in 1945, the nationalist coalition Viet Minh, led by communist revolutionary Ho Chi Minh, declared Vietnam’s independence.
Vietnam is currently classified as a developing country with a lower-middle-income economy, yet it is one of the fastest-growing economies of the 21st century. It is predicted to have a GDP that rivals that of developed nations by 2050. Vietnam’s human rights record is poor, with a high level of corruption and censorship, ranking among the lowest in international measurements of civil liberties, freedom of the press, and freedom of religion and ethnic minorities. Despite this, Vietnam is a member of several international and intergovernmental institutions, including the ASEAN, APEC, CPTPP, Non-Aligned Movement, OIF, and WTO, and has served on the United Nations Security Council twice.
