The Hmong were the mountain tribes in Vietnam. They were hunters and gatherers, and practiced small agriculture.

There are a lot of Hmongs in the Central Valley of California. Nice folks, mostly, except for the thug types who are in gangs.

One Hmong-run fruit stand has THE best strawberries in the spring.

The Hmong lived - and still do live - primarily in Laos and southern China, and were greatly helpful in what was then called “The Secret War” waged against the communist Pathet Lao, contemporaneous with the war in Vietnam. The hill tribes of Vietnam were referred to under the collective rubric “Montagnards.”
