Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Before 1971, the number of Vietnamese immigrants in the United States was quite low, largely due to restrictive immigration laws and the lack of significant push factors. The major influx of Vietnamese immigrants began after the end of the Vietnam War in 1975, when the fall of Saigon led to the evacuation of American personnel and at-risk Vietnamese, followed by further waves of refugees fleeing the new communist regime.
