This is based on scientific evidence, not the typical vietnamese myth.

  • Cantonese origins are from Vietnam. That's why many Cantonese have O1a and O2a in their Y-DNA. Cantonese also have highest Identity By State to Vietnamese, which means they are closest ethnic group to Vietnamese.

  • That's funny after viewing this video I find it very ignorant because this is just based one side history of one culture (Chinese). If you look and do research on the Khmer Empire culture and history it clearly explained where Vietnamese came from and they are originated migrated from China. They migrated south to conquered over Champa (Khmer Empire) and adapt and stole their language which is Mon-Khmer.

  • Yue mean Viet and Viet is only a culture that vietnamese and cantonese are known most off but language wise it's difference, but we do share the same culture with and the same family last name translated to pinyin to roman alphabets and cantonese and vietnamese are the same but has different language and Yue means Viet and it's a culture but people has their unique and separation and language but it's mean Viet= Yue and it's not a myth it has relation but has separate by language branch!

  • @olylifter69kg

    that doesn't make sense, because Nanman, Dongyi, Xirong and ? were four terms to describe non-Chinese people. The people of the south were all Nanman including the Tai speakers, Lolo-Tibeto Burman speakers, Miao-Yao speakers, Austro-asiatic speakers. The only reason why the Miao were called Nanman were because the Chinese officials did not distinguished the different ethnic groups of the south... The Zhuang themselves called themselves Ma. The Yi were called Man.

  • @olylifter69kg it was a combination of knowing that we were a part of the Chu state + not worth the military cost to pursue us, im a chinese history major, qin shihuangdi knew that miao-yao peoples were part and parcel of Chu state who jointly assisted the Han chinese in conquering the Baiyues who were part of the Wu state located in the mouth of the yangzi, so he spared us/left us alone while he almost completely annihilated the Baiyues and actively conquered Vietnam

  • @olylifter69kg truth hurts dude, i'm mien though, but in the end, it really is nothing to worry about because the baiyue were known for eating practically anything, like worms, dogs, cats, bugs, etc... while the nanman like us hmong-mien were only southern barbarians in the sense that we successfully resisted the han chinese encroachment by the Qin, actually Qin shihuangdi did not pursue us until the hills during the Qin because he knew miao-yao were once a part of the Chu state

  • @niamtxiv i think you'll really like this scholarly article then, here is the quote: "The Miao-Yao groups, who settled in the middle reaches of the Yangzi, were called Nan Man, whereas the most southern branch of the three groups if pioneers were referred to as the Bai Yue and the focus of this paper." J.A. Edmondson pg.9 from "The power of language over the past: Tai settlement and Tai linguistics in southern China and northern Vietnam".

  • @olylifter69kg

    bullshit. Nanman were referred to people that practice slavery like the Yi, Jingpo, Lisu, Tibetan......... The Miao were referred to both Nanman and Baiyue, because the Chinese couldn't differentiate them just like how the Miao labeled the Han, Mongol, Manchu as northern barbarians because they couldn't differentiate them.

  • informative nicely done

  • ZZZzzZZ wtf are you guys tripping on.. Hhahahaha pointless

  • @olylifter69kg structure. It is so much similar to cantonese in terms of expression. Beside the fact vietnamese has borrowed from most cantonese and some mandarin, the tones and the sentence structure,expression is alot like cantonese and thai and such. I know this cause i study cantonese. However cantonese vocabulary is much different from vietnamese. So that is why vietnamese is like the intermidiate of the east and south east parts of asia. You can see this in their appearance
