Vietnam
Article was written in 2011.
The Vietnam war began in 1954 after the rise to power of Ho Chi Minh and his communist Viet Minh party in North Vietnam, and continued against the backdrop of an intense Cold War between two global superpowers: the United States and the Soviet Union. More than 3 million people (including 58,000 Americans) were killed in the Vietnam War. In 1973, President Nixon ordered the withdrawal of U.S Forces. The war was North Vietnam against South Vietnam. North Vietnam was supported by communist China and other communist counties, while South Vietnam was supported by the U.S. , and anti-communist countries.
So far during all these units, we have learned a lot about, communist countries. We have also learned about all the wars that the U.S has been involved in. We learned about Cuba this term. Cuba, just like China and Vietnam is Communist. The U.S is not allowed to enter Cuba unless there is a special pass given by the Dictator. The U.S was involved with both countries.

America's NTM vs. Vietnam's NTM
America's Next Top Model is Vietnam's equivalent of Vietnam's Next Top Model. They both look for model's to walk the world's most famous runways. They were also both created by Tyra Banks. They are both exactly the same thing only in different countries. The the only thing that's different between ANTM and VNTM, is that ANTM models travel around the world and live in a different spot other than America.They have most recently allowed them to travel to other spots other than just staying in Vietnam. Some of the things that are the same about both of them is that there are judges, models, and in the end only one will come out on top as America's/Vietnam's Next Top Model.
5 Themes of geo for Japan
Primary Source: Katana or the Japanese Sword
This is a Katana, or a Japanese Sword, used by the many Japanese Samurai's, and is now practiced in the Japanese Form of Karate. This sword was viewed as one of the main and sacred weapons in ancient Japan. Often many considered the sword to be really precious, and treated it as a part of their family. Often giving them names, and such. Just like a general in the Army, it really values all the weapons he/she uses, the samurai's really valued the weapons they used. In fact only samurai's were allowed to carry swords, if a peasant was seen carrying a sword, they would be killed on the spot! :o
