How has Vietnam's economy developed since the war ended in 1970s and if prior information available what was it before? 
 After the war which ended in 1975, Vietnam was united under a communist government. In 1986, the government launched a number of economic and political reforms that began its integration into the world economy. Since 2000, Vietnam's ecomic growth has been among the highest in the world. 
 Any information on who Vietnam partnered with in trade to accomplish that stellar goal? 
 As a result of these reforms, the country achieved around 8% growth each year. Also in 1994, the U.S ended its economic embargo against Vietnam so that contributed to the growth as well. 
 Anything about welcoming foreign investment from USA financial firms, tis a bit above the average? Looking to see where to shift if major recession comes 
 I have no information on that but I can tell you that the US in 2016, further normalized relations with Vietnam with then-President Barack Obama announcing the lifting of an arms embargo on sales of lethal arms to Vietnam. 
 Protecting their investments. Moving forward need a timeline of the history of Vietnam may see opportunities not apparent otherwise 
 Vietnam has been constantly in war. After the Japanese occupation in 1940, it fought French colonial rule during the First Indochina War. It was divided into two politcal states, North and South Vietnam, conflicts between two sides intensified leading to the so-called Vietnam War with strong influence from the US in South Vietnam. The war ended in 1975 with North Vietnamese victory. 
 Who made money on that was military contractors on both sides and who lost were citizens. So long period of militarization that took money away from trade, got country totally exploited, so upon recovery what industries did it gravitate toward or what things left a gap that needs filled with goods and imports? 
 The United States was the country that purchased the highest amount of Vietnam's exports, while goods from China were the most popular Vietnamese import. 
 Intriguing. So in business USA buys and to establish more Asian culture they import from China. So any information that shows Vietnam recovered to the point it creates its own goods in the style of Vietnam or did the culture get aquisitioned to survive? 
 I don't have information on that but I can tell you that in terms of cultural influences, the Vietnamese people revere a number of key cultural symbols such as the Vietnamese dragon which is derived from crocodile and snake imagery. Vietnam's national father, Lac Long Quan is depicted as a holy dragon. Despite colonialism and militarization, it has somehow kept its own cultural identity. 
 :) I am glad of that. So here is to the holy dragon that watches over them. I believe I have read the information I sought. Will try to find those things to invest in that support that. Have a grand Time! 
 You too now.
