Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The story starts with the historical facts of ancient Germanic tribes amalgamating and two of them becoming dominant. These were the Franks and the Saxons. In the case of the Saxons, they were originally the remants of the army of Alexander the Great and they dispersed to many parts of the world after his death in Babylon. It is known that the Saxons arrived on the northern coasts of Germania, arriving there in Greek ships. The Saxons amalgamated with the Engel tribe from about midway of the Jutland pennisula. The Engels were fine warriors and sailors, They lived allong a fiord with its enterance on thhe western side of the pennisula. The mame of the fiord was Eckenforde. Soon aftter that, the Saxons again amalgamated, this time with the Kimbern Tribe from the north of the penisuula. The Kimbern were called Ciimbri by the Romans who dreaded them and they even went south to Rome and sacked it. After the Roman withdrawal from Britania, the king of the Britons, called Vortigern asked for Germanic warriors to protect hiis people from maruuding Scots who were crossing Hadrian's Wall at will and raiding the Briitons. Eventually the call to protect the Britoons was answered by the two twin bother princes of the Kimbern Triibe called Hengest annd Horsa. They diid in fact stop the incursions of thhe Scots and after they had brought in their families from Germania, their decendents became the English. England was so called because as the Engels were appoaching the costs of Britania, many of them remarked, 'The coast here looks like what we have left in Germmaniia. I hereby named this to be Engel-land.' (Home of the Engels).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The full story of the three Indochina wars, told from both sides and including the plight of civilians caught up in the fighting. Of necessity, the politics of Australia, New Zealand, Britain, France, and the USA towards the push for independence and freedom by Vietnam and Laos are examined. The region known as Indochina is made up of the countries of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. The First Indochina War was the patriots of Laos and Vietnam working together to defeat the French, at Dien Bien Phu. The French were there in overwhelming numbers and were supported and supplied by the USA, which directly supplied many thousands of tons of weapon directly to the French. As well as aircraft, pilots for these were at times, also supplied to the French by the USA. The USA interfered with the Paris Peace talks and Vietnam was partitioned at the 17th parallel, resulting in the Second Indochina War, which is also known as the Vietnam War. That was lost by the Americans and the USA allies when the last US soldier was withdrawn from Vietnam in 1975. The USA lost more than 58,600 men Killed in Action (KIA). That is an alarming level of casualties when you remember that for every soldier at the 'Sharp End', the USA had another ten in support. In other words, when the USA numbers of soldiers in Vietnam was at 500,000, only about 50,000 of these personnel were involved directly in combat. That means the American ratio for those in support compared to those in combat was 10:1. Now look at the American KIA figure for 1961-1975, of in excess of 58,000 and you should be horrified at the killed in action figure being higher than the total amount of those involved in combat duties. After the departure of Allied forces in 1975, the Vietnamese Army invaded Kampuchea in 1978 (Third Indochina War) and then replaced the Pol Pot Government with the Hung Sen Government.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The full history of the Indochina Wars beginning with the French colonising Indochina and enslaving the people there. That goes on to the French passing laws which forbade the continued use of Chinese writing character. The French transcribed the entire Vietnamese language into the Latin script and taught that in all schools. That was done so as to enable more easy control of the population of the Vietnamese people! This resulted in Vietnam being the only country in Asia to use the Latin alphabet. This book also looks at the political issues surrounding the Second Indochina War (Vietnam War) and the political intrigues which were in place in Paris, Canberra, Washington and London as well as Moscow.…
