Laotian kingdoms often clashed with Vietnamese dynasties and sometimes these clashes would evolve into wars. Several border conflicts and territorial disputes would arise, but the most notable of these was the Vietnamese invasion of Laos in the late 15th century. The Vietnamese Later Lê dynasty invaded and devastated Laos for nearly two years. The Vietnamese subsequently retreated over a span of 10 years (between 1480 and 1490).

Bilateralism
Bilateralism is the conduct of political, economic, or cultural relations between two sovereign states. It is in contrast to unilateralism or multilateralism, which is activity by a single state or jointly by multiple states, respectively. When states recognize one another as sovereign states and agree to diplomatic relations, they create a bilateral relationship. States with bilateral ties will exchange diplomatic agents such as ambassadors to facilitate dialogues and cooperations. Economic agreements, such as free trade agreements (FTA) or foreign direct investment (FDI), signed by two states, are a common example of bilateralism. Since most economic agreements are signed according to the specific characteristics of the contracting countries to give preferential treatment to each other, not a generalized principle but a situational differentiation is needed. Thus through bilateralism, states can obtain more tailored agreements and obligations that only apply to particular cont ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The border is 2,161 km (1,343 m) in length and runs from the tripoint with China in the north to tripoint with Cambodia in the south. Description The border starts in the north at the tripoint with China and proceeds overland in a south-eastwards direction.
