Higher quality version of "History of Vietnam" for template heading.png, which includes a seal, Chinese characters, and Vietnamese alphabet writing "Lịch sử Việt Nam". 
The text is deliberately written in Seal script, Traditional Chinese characters, and Latin script to symbolise the evolution of Vietnamese writing over time. The Seal script is written up-to-down and right-to-left, while the Traditional Chinese characters are written from right-to-left (.mw-parser-output ruby>rt,.mw-parser-output ruby>rtc{font-feature-settings:"ruby"1}南越史歷 (Nam Việt sử Lịch)), and the Latin letters are written from left-to-right, showing the different styles that these scripts are written.
