  • Indochina, or the Indochinese peninsula, is a region in Southeast Asia. It lies roughly east of India, southwest of China. The name has its origins in the French, Indochine, as a combination of "India" and "China", and was adopted when French colonizers in Vietnam began expanding their territory to bordering countries.
