The Hmong people have lived in the mountainous regions of China
Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand since the 7th century.
They also have migrated to several parts of the United States, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, California, Washington, Utah, and Michigan.
In these states, you will find established Hmong Villages
centred around large populations of Hmong-Americans
who came here as refugees during the Secret War in Laos in the 1970s.
