Demographic features of the population of Vietnam include population density, ethnicity, education level, health of the populace, economic status, religious affiliations and other aspects of the population.

Ethnic Vietnamese, or the Viet people (known officially as Kinh), live in the lowlands and speak the Vietnamese language, as opposed to the many ethnic groups of Vietnam who are known to occupy the mountainous regions. Originating in northern Vietnam, the Viet gradually pushed southward and make up much of Vietnam's political landscape. Alongside them, other ethnicities also contribute to the country's diverse demographic composition.

Vietnam's population reached just over 100 million in 2023,[6] making it the 15th largest country by population in the world.[7][8] It is predicted that by 2035, Vietnam will become an aged society.[9][10]

Ethnic groups

[edit] See also: List of ethnic groups in Vietnam
Ethnolinguistic map of Indochina in 1970. Note: ethnic composition has changed significantly due to internal migration.

The Vietnamese government recognizes 54 ethnic groups, of which the Viet (Kinh) is the largest; according to official Vietnamese figures (2019 census), ethnic Vietnamese account for 85.3% of the nation's population and the non-Vietnamese ethnic groups account for the remaining portion. The ethnic Vietnamese inhabit a little less than half of Vietnam, while the ethnic minorities inhabit the majority of Vietnam's land (albeit the least fertile parts of the country).[citation needed]

The relation between China and Vietnam also declined following reunification in 1976, with Vietnam siding with the Soviet Union against China in the Chinese-Soviet split. Tensions peaked when Vietnam and Cambodia started a war, Cambodia led by Pol Pot being a Chinese ally, resulting in a Chinese invasion of Vietnam in 1979. In 1978–79, some 450,000 ethnic Chinese left Vietnam by boat as refugees (many officially encouraged and assisted) or were expelled across the land border with China. In recent years the government has performed an about turn and is encouraging overseas Hoa to return and invest, but the ethnic Chinese population has been in continuous decline since the 1970s due to assimilation and low birth rates.[citation needed]

The central highland peoples commonly termed Degar or Montagnards (mountain people) comprise two main ethnolinguistic groups – Malayo-Polynesian and Mon–Khmer. About 30 groups of various cultures and dialects are spread over the highland territory.[citation needed]

Other minority groups include the Cham—remnants of the once-mighty Champa Kingdom, conquered by the Vietnamese in the 15th century, Hmong, and Thái.[citation needed]

Languages

[edit]

Vietnamese is the national language.[27] It belongs to the Austroasiatic language family, which also includes languages such as Khmer and Mon. Vietnamese was spoken by 85–90 million people in Vietnam at the 1999 census. In the early 21st century, around another four million Vietnamese speakers are found outside of Vietnam, mostly refugees from the Vietnam-American War. Thus Vietnamese is the most spoken language of the Austroasiatic family, being spoken by three times more people than the second most spoken language of the family, Khmer. Both languages, however, are extremely different: Vietnamese is a tonal, monosyllabic language while Khmer has remained non-tonal. Vietnamese was heavily influenced by Chinese, with up to around 50–70% words having Chinese origins, whilst Khmer was heavily influenced by Sanskrit and Pali, uses an abugida writing system, and has a great part of its vocabulary originating from Indian languages. Since the early 20th century, the Vietnamese have used a Romanized script introduced by the French, developed by Jesuit missionaries led by Alexandre de Rhodes and later on, refined by Vietnamese scholars to produce what is now known as the Vietnamese alphabet.[citation needed]

Religion

[edit] Main article: Religion in Vietnam Religion in Vietnam (2019)[26]
  1. Vietnamese folk religion or non-religious (86.3%)
  2. Catholicism (6.10%)
  3. Buddhism (4.79%)
  4. Hoahaoism (1.02%)
  5. Protestantism (1.00%)
  6. Others (0.77%)

According to the 2019 Census, the religious demographics of Vietnam are as follows:[26]

  • 86.32% Vietnamese folk religion or non-religious
  • 6.1% Catholicism
  • 4.79% Buddhism (mainly Mahayana)
  • 1.02% Hoahaoism
  • 1% Protestantism
  • <1% Caodaism
  • 0.77 Others

It is worth noting here that the data is highly skewed, as a large majority of Vietnamese may declare themselves atheist yet practice forms of traditional folk religion or Mahayana Buddhism.[28]

Estimates for the year 2010 published by the Pew Research Center:[29]

  • Vietnamese folk religion, 45.3%
  • Unaffiliated, 29.6%
  • Buddhism, 16.4%
  • Christianity, 8.2%
  • Other, 0.5%
