    I the past, there are many invasion from China. Most recent event is the border invasion in 1979, for the reason we end the Pol Pot regime in Combodia.
    However, these years, Vietnam-China relation seems to be quite friendly. My deparment have just visit China last year. I think many Chinese still hold the "big brother" or "Center of Universe" idea? ("China" of Zhongguo actually means "Central Kingdom" )
    For mor information about the above event, use Google.

    Sucks. Period.

    But as one of China's greatest ideological leaders said himself, a statesman fond of killing should rarely see his state last more than 10 generations.

    Something about corruption or law by Crime and punishment on increasingly local levels pushed that limit down even further, where it became a true-to-life case with teh soviets.
