Phases 9 & 10

The Kingdom of Laos developped an extremely high freedom in around all areas; media freedom is one of the highest in the region, healthcare is free, a royal police is established to safeguard the sovereignty and there's a number of reforms taking place in the countries; namely the innovative take of subsistence agriculture compensating for its low GDP. Inequality gap between the rich and the poor is low and impressive preservation of the nature and cultural heritage would help Laos join UNESCO for some of its phenomenal patrimonies. As a neutral country, Laos established many diplomaticrelations with communist countries such as Czechoslovakia, East Germany and Romania but is reluctant the way some such governments behaved. Major problems still exists including its low life expectancy and political instability is under concern, as the Three Princes are trying to form a coalition government that will inevitably end in disaster, but how?

North Vietnam made its extensive purge of dissidents in all aspects of life and imprison many religious leaders and political lawbreakers. On the other hand it did have great respect for the overall environment and promised to the government and its people that it could turn the country into a miniature Soviet Union. Cinema and entertainment are on the rise beginning with the release of a renowned war drama film depicting the life of a worker launching an uprising against the colonialists. The government is also heavily supporting socialist movements around the world and try their hardest to purge any trace of French colonial influence in the country to fully promote leftist nationalism and as a catalysm to potential reunification. In response, the North Vietnamese government intended to create Viet Cong which acts as its counterpart in South Vietnam and is operated underground to avoid any repraisals. Almost all companies and investments in the country are nationalized and private outlets are very rare and institutions acting with independence from the government are absent.

South Vietnam officially become an independent state as the Republic of Vietnam and made its first speech while on arrival during its first appearance at the United Nations. Its economy progressed at unprecedented levels, media freedom is high and a number of newspapers covering on all fields of South Vietnam in itself are created in a short period. Inequality is mild so there's some chance it need to be improved and religious freedom is sometimes faced with troubles especially among Buddhists which constitutes a large part of the population. It heavily supported pro-US movements around the world and established relations with the unified Korea for the first time, inciting South Vietnam to plan reunifying its northern neighbor under capitalist control. South Vietnam also strengthened very strong relations with the newly independent Cambodia as well other ASEAN members. South Vietnam supported anti-colonialist movement in Burma but somehow is dubious about what will happen after.
