Vietnamese nationalism
Vietnamese nationalism is a sense of pride and identity rooted in the country's history, culture, and desire for independence. It emerged as a movement to unite Vietnamese people against foreign rule, such as colonial dominance by France and later conflicts like the Vietnam War. This nationalism emphasizes respecting Vietnam’s traditions, promoting sovereignty, and fostering a collective identity that values the nation's independence and cultural heritage. It has played a key role in shaping Vietnam’s political goals and continues to influence national policies and cultural expression today.
