North Vietnam benefited from assistance by Communist China, but was not communistic at the start of the Vietnam War in the 1960s. It wasn't taken over by Communists until 1976. Today, Vietnam is a socialist state and though ruled by a "Communist" party, is not a true communist state but rather a dictatorship that uses Communism as a front.
Vietnam was part of the COLD WAR. It was fought to stop the spread of communism.
Russian Communism (the Soviet Union) is a Traditional Communist State and Vietnamese Communism (People's Republic of Vietnam) is a Leninist Communist State.Traditional Communist States: Traditional Communism requires an autocratic government ruled by the Communist Party, but primarily guided by individual politicians. The government is required to collectivize private property and redistribute wealth. Stalin's Soviet Union and Cuba are often seen as examples of traditional communism.Leninist Communist States: China and Vietnam are Leninist Communist States. Leninist Communism is the political theory that a single party called the Communist Party rules the government and governs all affairs as opposed to individual politicians. Although the single party in a Leninist Communist State is the the Communist Party, the party need not practice Communist political theory. In both China and Vietnam, there is a state-directed, right-wing economic and political theory.
No, the collapse of the USSR does not actually prove that communism doesn't work, any more than the failure of Joe's Fish and Chips proves that restaurants don't work. The failure of the Soviet Union and its satellite states is just one example in which a paranoid version of communism didn't work. It may well be that it is possible to do it better. Although I offer no guarantees.
The State That Fought At The Vietnam War Was The united States
China began the transition to state capitalism in 1949. There cannot be a Communist country, as Communism (a classless stateless society based on production for use) can only be introduced at a global level.

The golden age of communism was a period where many countries were communist. They were the years 1979-1983, which a global extent was communist. (In every country). Thus, it has shrunk, with only 4 countries remaining. - China - Cuba - Laos - Vietnam (You could also say that this is socialism, which countries state they are communist, but they are socialist and "building" communism.) In reality, communism died with Mao in 1976. The two biggest supporters of the global communist movement were China and the Soviet Union. Stalin died in 1953, and Mao in 76. After that, the golden era was over. Since then, there are many who call themselves communist, but actually practiced capitalism.
