Agreed, Vietnam should be removed from the Ancient group: It's history 
as a distinct nation started in the 900s. The Vietnamese themselves 
apparently like to believe they had an independent dynasty in the 300s 
BC, but that is controversial and probably just a legend. Using that 
kind of logic, Japanese and Koreans should be ancient too..
