Yes, we were forced to become a "vassal" of China for many centuries, because VN was a country small and weak but we are not lucky when our country is a neighbor of a giant, who is big but badboy and bullying.
Although we fought against the bully, and not less times we had victories. But it's difficult to deal with the wicked guys, who never give up expansionist ideology to Vietnam.
A small country like VN has always faced "human waves" of Chinese, year to year, it's hard to resist.
Ironically, when the French invaded Vietnam, Chinese ran away quickly, left Vietnam alone fighting against the French.
But after the Vietnamese defeated the French at Dien Bien Phu, China communist government had been hiding to shake hands with the French, just before the Geneva Conference 1954, and France-China had agreement to divide VN into 2 parts, this was the cause of Vietnam War 1954-1975 bloody later.
After we liberated the country in 1975, China sent a lot of weapons to the Khmer Rouge, China instigated, provoked the Khmer Rouge to attack VN along the border VN-Cambodia. The reason China did so because they wanted VN to stand with them against Soviet Union, but VN was not wanted.
Taking advantage while South Vietnam was flooded in war with North VN, and the US withdrew from Vietnam in 1973, China used force to rob Paracel Islands from South Vietnam in 1974.
In 1979, China launched a bloody border war against Vietnam, China killed so many innocent civilians, who thought previously the Chinese are "brothers" of them. The reason China did so because they wanted to save their Khmer Rouge ally, a barbaric genocide regime.
In 1988, China used warships that equipped with heavy weapons to attack the small transport ships of VN navy, killing the building-soldiers, who didn't have any weapons, then China has robbed some coral reefs of the Spratly Islands from Vietnam.
So, all suffering, slavery, wars, destruction, death ... in Vietnam, thousands of years always caused by the Chinese, directly or indirectly.
And so, Chinese members here and China's lapdogs, please tell me why do we always should see the Chinese are good friends?
I know you don't have your history without learning Chinese. But still fact exist: A Chinese called Zhao Tou who united some Yue tribes and established a country of current Vietnam.
As I posted in other thread, China is a peace-keeping force of ASEAN.

Thank you for your interesting questions!
Here is how:
In my earlier posts, I have suggest people study the concept and history of
“Indochina federation”, which is an important idea for modern Vietnam.
Recent couple of decades, it shows that Vietnam, being suppressed in history and modern times by many foreign powers, much like Korea, has a people of burning desire to conquer the world (
laughable? But it is true! ) constantly agitated by its irrational jingoism. Hundred times worse than India.
In contrast to India which has vast land and massive population, and therefore has certain legitimacy to claim or attempt to claim a next superpower,
VN is a humanity sh!thole with disadvantageous geography and puny amount of population, added to its perpetual poverty, disastrous education system, and crippled and distorted history due to abolishment of Chinese language (that carries its history).
From this PDF forum alone, you can see so many history illiterate Vietnamese spewing out ridiculous “evidence” that SCS islands are all Viet’s. Those “evidences” were all written in Chinese and seldom those Viets actually know Chinese and therefore understand what were on the “evidence”. LOL! In fact, those isolated maps or scrolls presented by PDF Viet illiterates may well be an indication that those islands were actually documented by ancient Chinese and indeed belong to China, even though tiny portion of the ancient Chinese became modern Vietnamese later.
Many Vietnamese know that shortcomings. Thus
their first attempt is to revive so called Indochina federation by annexing its neighboring countries such as mild Cambodia and same mild but more backward Lao to gain land mass. Some Vietnamese want to also have a piece of Chinese land. Those crazy Viet in PDF and elsewhere claim that Chinese Guangxi autonomous region belongs to Vietnam!
I remember one stupid Viet went so far as to say Chinese land up to Yangtze River are all Vietnam’s.
Frankly, that Viet dunce’s brain must be squeezed by a gigantic donkey’s @ss at least once, perhaps twice, otherwise it is hard to explain the severity of his mental condition.
Seriously, this is pretty dangerous, not only to the peace of ASAN, but also to the peace of the world in general.
Vietnam’s invasion of Cambodia was the first step toward Viet’s realization of “Indochina federation” under the pretext to overthrow Pol Pot. If you have studied Indochina modern history, documents show that
Pol Pot and VietCom were initially in the same pants. Only when VeitCom suggested to Pol Pot “Indochina federation” concept, it caused extreme nationalistic Pol Pot to rebuke, ending up in a split of the two parties.
Chinese spanking of Vietnam in 1979 was exactly in such a background: China worried that if Vietnam indeed annexed Cambodia and Lao under Soviet evil support, the whole SE Asia would be in disaster, because
Vietnam would not just stop there, it would further encroach/occupy Thailand , threatening Malaysia and Singapore. Don’t you see the “pride” some Viets in this forum show when they present the picture that Viet cannoned Thailand’s building? And so many
Vietnamese here are blatantly raving about controlling Malacca Strait in this very PDF forum and many where else?
If Vietnam is allowed to follow its satanic ambition, it is well possible that it would invade Burma and thread Bangladesh/India. Vietnam’s diabolical appetite would never be met. Just look at now: such a tiny country,
stricken with poverty and inflation, yet filled with warmongers and criminals and claims a large part of China, both mainland and SCS islands.
Thus,
it is a benevolent China that effectively suppresses Vietnam’s fiendish ambition and keeps the peace of ASEAN, and the peace of Asia in general.
