Something I Learned

I learned that Birthdays are not celebrated in Vietnam. One of the most popular celebrations is Lunar New Year, where all birthdays are celebrated. Another thing i learned was that the language is very difficult to learn and that there are 6 different tones. Over 92 million people live in Vietnam and the largest city has 6.2 million people living in it. During world war ll Japan took over shortly and in the 1890s France was in control. They worship many cultural symbols like the dragon, turtle, and the horse. Vietnamn is the largest exporter of cashew nuts and black pepper. Its cuisines is one of the healthiest; it is a mixture of Thai and Chinese. It combines 5 natural elements; spicy, sour, bitter, salty, and sweet. ( earth, wood, fire, metal, and water). The traditional culture focuses on Humanity, harmony, and family. The lands with rivers are very fertile which is ideal to grow crops and rice. Most of the countries population lives in this grassy agricultural areas.
