Vietnam War & French Influence in Vietnam Tour

Overview about Vietnam

The Vietnam War was a conflict between North and South Vietnam during the Cold War. It began in 1955 and ended in 1975, with the fall of Saigon in the South. During this time, France had a long and complex history in Vietnam, having colonized the area in the late 19th century.

French influence in Vietnam was pervasive, ranging from language, culture, politics, and economics. Vietnamese people experienced a number of changes as a result of French colonization, including increased access to education, improved infrastructure, and the introduction of new ideas and technologies.

However, the French also brought with them a system of colonial oppression, including forced labor and taxation. This led to widespread discontent among the Vietnamese people and ultimately to the Vietnam War.
