Vietnamese remnants


 * Government: While many of Vietnam's remaining survivors hid in caves. 2 Million had sailed throughout into the seas becoming "boat people" amongst other diverse South China seafarers. However, after a year, starvation, attacks by other "boat people" had resulted in deaths of almost 50% of the Boat people in 1973. Some who may have escaped or survived the radiation winds over the seas had began to accustom themselves to fishing and forming small floating village societies (or just travel around and trading posessions and other materials). Survivors began to memorize trade routes. Phillipines, Hainen, Hong Kong/Macau, Saigon, Hanoi, etc. are planned to be ideal trading hubs for the seafairers. It's been estimated that the South China Sea alone has about a million people of different cultures traveling about.


 * Economy: Survivors develop a fishing economy in noncontaminated deep ocean areas, and scavengers into irradiated wastelands (only those with gasmasks)


 * Military: Government alone has about 2,000 soldiers and a couple helicopters left on 4 large battleships, an aircraft carrier, and a government boat. Along with a few patrol boats stored in the battleships (mainly for scavenging missions and fending off pirates manually).


 * Diplomacy: none
