History of the Hmong People

With origins in the mountain ranges of China, Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos, the Hmong culture is one of the oldest in the world. Fighting fiercely alongside the United States Special Forces, the Hmong people provided reconnaissance support along with search and rescue missions during the Vietnam conflict in Southeast Asia. Today, the Hmong people of Laos are scattered throughout the world because of their crucial roles in the war.
