Southeast Asia

I don't really know. But i think its is something about the climate and something else....not really sure

kop chai not sure if that's the spelling but that's how u say it

Southeast Asia is a sub region of Asia, consists of 12 countries that are geographically south of China east of India and north of Australia. Southeast Asia has a land area of 5,000,000 km2 and population of 593,000,000.

Technically, Iraq is in Asia, so Iraqis would be considered Asian. However, the term "Asian" in most Anglophone countries is used to refer to people from East Asia (China, Korea, Japan, etc.), so Iraqis would be considered Middle Eastern, not Asian, since Iraq is in the Middle East, not East Asia.

For official purposes, customs in Vietnam dictate that people generally use the English Mr. or Ms. before the title or the title and the first name. They also use the Vietnamese word 'Thua', which stands for 'please', to add a note of reverence.

- They give more importance to their family name and put it first, then their middle name and finally their first name.

- True to the conservative traditions in Vietnam, the Vietnamese are absolutely averse to any kind of physical contact in public, especially among the opposite sex. Hence they do not generally shake hands but bow down a little to greet each other. At times they also join there hands and sometimes an elderly person touches a child's head.

I'm not an expert in this area. But to my understanding, the Vietnam War created divisions between the American popluation and the government. People could see for the first time the devastation caused by war, and this put a massive pressure on future governments for peace and an end to American involvement in future international disputes. The American government was also deeply shocked by the proceedings in Vietnam. The infamous Tet Offensive (where the Vietcong attacked and took over approximately 100 towns and cities across South Vietnam), was seen as a military embarrasment and provided further pressure for the American army to stay out of future disputes. In South Vietnam, untold damage was done to the Vietnamese economy, infrastructure and the rainforests. Vietnam went from becoming a major exporter of rice to a country that could hardly feed it's own people. Also, due to American tactics such as "Operation Ranch-Hand" which used chemicals such as Agent Orange to defoliate the rainforests, vast areas of natural resources became useless. This further decreased South Vietnam's ability to provide for itself and recover from the war. Even though after the war, South Vietnam did eventually be defeated by the Communists, it remained very weak and therefore no longer any real threat to the US itself.

No, Mesopotamia (Babylonia) was between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers (present day Iraq), located in the middle east not SW Asia

Yes, although the peninsula is actually called the 'Malay Peninsula', not Malaysian.

Most of Indochina is mountainous jungle with lowland rivers and coastlines. There is heavy humidity and large annual amounts of rainfall. There is a near constant heat throughout the lowland regions which lessens when you get up into the mountains.

Next to Great Britain, France had the largest overseas colony empire. This included what is now Vietnam. By 1955, France saw its grip beginning to slip and anti-French sentiment rose. The dissent resulted in two Vietnams. North & South, one was communist the other a shell of a free government.

Yes, US covert operations, as well as communists fighting the Cambodian government; but they were insurgents. Not regular troops from another country, like was happening in Vietnam.

The NVA were regular soldiers from North Vietnam moving thru neutral countries such as Laos and Cambodia-the US was at war with them! Cambodia/Laos were being USED.

Then...Laos/Cambodia had their own home-grown communists fighting against them; insurgents. The US was too busy fighting regular troops from Hanoi.

Now, I assume you mean why the Japanese were angry at the Americans during World War II? If so, it was because, at the turn of the 20th century, the Japanese faced rapid modernization and militarization. They had goals of conquering colonies to have a large empire like what the Western world was doing. Because Japan is an island nation, its resources are limited. Prior to WWII, the Japanese needed sufficient fuel for their warships, planes, and transportation, as well as oil and steel. To solve this problem, the Japanese wanted to attack the United States in order to acquire ample resources. This eventually led to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the U.S. entering WWII.

The Europeans introduced modern technology and expanded commerce and industry in Southeast Asia.
