The border is the Sino-Vietnamese border, where fighting broke out in March, 1979 between China and Vietnam, 4 years after the victory over South Vietnam and 4 months after the Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia. The Chinese were victorious but withdrew, and failed to stop the Cambodian incursion.
* The better known border is the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) along the 38th Parallel separating North Korea from South Korea.
The name given to the dividing line between North and South Vietnam is the Vietnamese Demilitarized Zone. This was a result of participation in the first Indochina war.

The NVA and ARVN fought in South Vietnam. The only fighting taking place in North Vietnam was between jet aircraft (the air war).
The south
When the Vietnam War ended in 1975, North and South Vietnam became one communist nation called Vietnam.
Communist NORTH Vietnam wanted to re-unite with it's SOUTHERN half; SOUTH Vietnam. The US backed South Vietnam desired to remain a non-communist Republic of South Vietnam. Because the "Communists" were involved, and this was the cold war era; the US had to stop & contain communism. The North attacked the South, the South resisted...Vietnam War.
The 17th parallel was established on 21 July 1954 as a provisional demarcation line.
The Vietnam War was primarily fought between North Vietnam, supported by the Soviet Union and China, and South Vietnam, supported by the United States and its allies. The conflict arose out of the division of Vietnam following the First Indochina War and the subsequent Geneva Accords in 1954. The war lasted from 1955 to 1975 and resulted in the reunification of Vietnam under communist rule.
