Is this true, prior to the 1600s, much of present day South Vietnam actually belonged to the Khmer empire?

Eh? Since when.

I dont like neither the CCP or VCP....

My gfs Viet, so I wouldnt be stupid enough to $hit all Viets...

Yes, southern Vietnam was once Cambodian territory, end of story.

Fujisan, I'm surprised you didn't you know. Another 10 points taken from your IQ count :genius:

and central vietnam used to belong to the Chams!

Yeah but it wasn't a city back then. It was called Prey Nokar and it was a small fishing village.

He didn't say anything about a city.

Eventhough it wasn't a city, it was appart of the Khmer Empire

Yes he did read the topic title.

LOL

he said HCMC, not if Prey Nokar was a city.

I'll rephrase it for you :

Was Ho Chi Minh City apart of The Khmer Empire?

HCMC used to be Prey Nokar until it was expanded during Vietnamese annexation.

Well done Byron, you answered correctly without going around the question

Well the question asks whether Saigon is built on former Khmer land. The answer is yes. However, there was a Cambodian trading centre called Prey Nokor but it died out and Saigon was built on it.

like Tenochtitlan and Mexico City, neh?

this land is my land, this land is your land :headphones:

And this doesn't make sense

This land is your land, this land is my land
From the redwood forest to the New York island.
From the snow-capped mountains to the Gulf Stream waters
This land is made for you and me.
As I go walkin' my ribbon of highway
I see all around me my blue blue skyway
Everywhere around me the wind keeps a-whistlin'
This land is made for you and me.

I'm a-chasin' my shadow out across this roadmap
To my wheat fields waving, to my cornfield dancing
As I go walkin' this wind keeps talkin'
This land is made for you and me.

I can see your mailbox, I can see your doorstep
I can feel my wind rock your tip-top treetop
All around your house there my sunbeam whispers
This land is made for you and me.

isnt mexico city sinking? what about singang?

South Vietname was once a Cambodian Land, but HCMC is 100% Vietnamese. We spend the money and effort to build saigon up. No one can have credits for that except for the Viets..well maybe a few other multination western country that invest in saigon, but that's it. HCMC is and has always being of Vietnam..
