** 13-Mar-2021 World View: Generational timeline for Vietnam
I've added a generation timeline to most of the dynasty histories,
and I've added a section listing the major generational crisis
wars in history:
111 BC - Invasion and conquest by Chinese
938 AD - Battle of Bach Dang River -- end of Chinese rule
1287 - Tran Dynasty defeats the Mongol invasion
1471 - Destruction of Champa Kingdom
1771 - Tay-Son Rebellion
1887 - France completes conquest of French Indochina
1979 - Climax of massive genocidal war involving Vietnam,
Cambodia and China
Haha. That's very funny.
If you're not Vietnamese, and you want to live in Vietnam or do
business in Vietnam, then you're going to have to know a lot more than
just a list of economic reforms. Such a person should really take the
time to understand the entire history of Vietnam, to get a feel for
what the Vietnamese culture is like. Therefore, 100% of the book is
how Vietnam became an economic powerhouse.
