History of Vietnam

Vietnam, with its coastal strip, rugged mountainous interior, and two major deltas, became home to numerous cultures throughout history. Its strategic geographical position in Southeast Asia also made it a crossroads of trade and a focal point of conflict, contributing to its complex and eventful past. During the Paleolithic period, the first Ancient East Eurasian hunter-gatherers arrived at least 40,000 years ago.
