Vietnam's people are a special mix of cultures, languages and historical backgrounds. The one common denominator amongst them is that, as in most Southeast Asia countries, they love to smile and are genuinely interested in foreign visitors.

The origins of the Vietnamese people are a combination of the Mongol races of north and east Asia, with Chinese and Indian influences. The population is surpassed only by Indonesia as Southeast Asia's most heavily populated country.

However, Vietnam is the region's most ethnically homogenous country with the Vietnamese making up about 90% of the population. 85% of Vietnam's ethnic-minority population belongs to indigenous groups - the largest of which are Thai and Hmong - who have been settled in the mountainous regions of the country for many centuries. About 3% of the population is ethnic Chinese living in the urban centres of the South.
