Our country has an S-shape, stretching from the
South China Sea to Ca Mau cape with a surface
of 320.000 square kilometers and a population of
more than seventy millions. Most people live on
agriculture. The Red River and the Mekong River
deltas are the two rice-baskets of the whole
country. Vietnam is holding the third place among
the rice-exporting countries in the world.

Our Vietnamese people, through many years
living under the yoke of French colonialists,
Japanese fascists and American Imperialists had
to undergo great hardships and sufferings. But
with an unyielding spirit and with the wise
leadership of the Vietnamese Communist Party
the Vietnamese people launched a long and
courageous struggle against foreign invaders and
finally succeeded in sweeping all of them out of
the country.

On April 30, 1975, we were able to restore our
whole freedom and independence. The entire
country has been reunified from North to South.
The Dien Bien Phu Victory and the Great Victory
of Spring 1975 are the most glorious feats of arms
in the Vietnamese History.

No sooner had peace been restored on our
territory than we began to heal the wounds of the
atrocious war. In our nation reconstruction, we
have been helped wholeheartedly by our friends
from five continents. We are always grateful to
this precious help and contribution.

Rich in natural resources and abundant in
minerals, our beloved Vietnam with its industrious
and creative people will be one of the wealthiest
and most powerful countries in South East Asia in
years to come.
