Classified Vietnamese nationalism:

I. In ancient Vietnam:

- Nation nationalism (war against invaders)
- Imperial nationalism (to occupation land, oppressed minority people)
- (Sinitic) Cultural nationalism (like to defend the last Sinitic cultures against Mongols or Manchus)
- Han nationalism (elites due to Chinese ancestry)

2. Modern Vietnam

- History nationalism
- State nationalism ("everything our party does is right", "against the state mean your against your country")
- Football nationalism
- Traditional nationalism (restore)
- Pan-Baiyueism hypothesis/ Pro-South east Asian/pro-Japanese/pro-US anti-Chinese ultranationalism

Vietnamese irredentism section edit

I don't know why but this part has been changing a lot, could be by Vietnamese nationalists or people that simply know nothing about the topic. This isn't a serious ideology but a concept sparked in the modern time.

Someone added the part that "Vietnam had made many conquests to reclaim their land", with no citation, and simply untrue. Vietnam had expanded a lot in its history southward, the current southern part of Vietnam used to be foreign land entirely. And only had lost its territory twice:

-The lost ancient South China land: Which no Vietnamese dynasties had tried to reclaim it from Chinese dynasties.

-The partition under French colonial rule (Vietnam used to own a large chunk of Laos and Cambodia): Which after independence, neither North or South Vietnam tried to reclaim them, and so is the current government. Make no mistake, the Vietnam invasion of Cambodia in 1975-1978 wasn't for territorial gain, or did Vietnam gain any territory. NightJasian (talk) 11:04, 27 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
