Free societies during the COLD WAR were modeled after the US system; very modestly. The US did not interfere with local ways of life. The REPUBLIC of South Vietnam was supposed to be a free democratic society, with free elections, schools, roads, and normal conveniences of everyday life. Similiar to South Korea of today, making cars, TV's, computers, etc. exporting and importing, etc. On 30 April 1975, when NORTH Vietnamese Army Tanks crashed thru the presidential Palace Gates, ending the war; South Vietnam ceased to exist.

When was Indochina renamed Vietnam?

Indochina was never renamed Vietnam. The two terms refer to different things. Indochina was a French colony that included Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. Each became independent under its own name. The only reason that France ruled them as a unity was that simply helped administration. The various ethnic groups, Kinh (Vietnam), Khmer (Cambodia), and Lao (Laos) never saw Indochina as a federation.However, the date when maps stopped identifying Dai Nam or Vietnam as independent and instead as part of Indochina was 1885. North Vietnam and South Vietnam returned with the dissolution of French indochina in 1954.
