Traditionally, France hasn't won that many wars (Napoleon excepted). Traditionally, the US has won all of theirs. Therefore, we went to Vietnam.

What country controlled Vietnam until the late 1950's?

France took over Vietnam 1895 and lost control to Germany when France was invaded by Germany in WWII. Germany then transferred control of Vietnam to Japan, their ally at the time. Even though Japan ruled Vietnam, French colonial rulers kept their power and were overseen by the Japanese. The Japanese did not have nearly enough manpower to rule Vietnam. When Japan surrendered in 1945, French colonial rulers attempted a rebellion against the Japanese, but were crushed. Many of the French fled or were imprisoned. The Japanese rule was very weak and was taken over by the Viet Minh (Vietnamese nationalist group) in the same year. The French wanted to retake control of Vietnam and started negotiations with the Viet Minh. All talks failed and war was declared the following year. This war is famously known as The First Indochina War. After many years the French lost and Vietnam was independent. Vietnam's rulers: 1895-1940 France, 1940-1945 Japan, 1945-1954 Vietnam independent, but warring with French over control.

Why do many Vietnamese people speak French?

Many Vietnamese people speak French because Vietnam was a former French colony, leading to the adoption of French as a language of administration, education, and culture during the colonial period. Additionally, French continued to be spoken and taught in Vietnam after independence due to historical ties, globalization, and economic opportunities in French-speaking countries.


What two factors led to US involvement in the Vietnam War?

The U.S. was attempting to keep Communism from spilling over from North Vietnam to South Vietnam (one of the other posters referenced the "Domino Theory," which suggested that if one country became Communist, another could become Communist, and so on and so forth, like toppling dominoes). We first got involved in the 50s by providing relatively small amounts of economic and military aid to the French, who were involved in fighting in Vietnam before we were. When the French failed and a Communist government in North Vietnam arose, Eisenhower sent "advisors" to South Vietnam to train their military to resist the North's. In the 60s, JFK sent Green Berets/special operations forces clandestinely into Vietnam to train counterinsurgency forces there. By the time JFK was assassinated, we had over 10,000 advisors ("advisors" generally equals "special forces") in Vietnam, and over 100 Americans had already been killed. In 1964, the Gulf of Tonkin incident occurred in waters adjacent to North Vietnam, where an American warship and a North Vietnamese vessel exchanged gunfire. There was controversy as to who shot first, but it eventually led to a push for Congress to approve the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which allowed for further U.S. military escalation into Vietnam. There was no formal declaration of war, and military forces just kept getting incrementally larger and larger until their peak in the late 60s.


What did the native Americans west of the Appalachian mountains do after the war of french and Indian?

They were pretty much left to their own devices. They formed an alliance and traded with the British who kept their forts contrary to the Treaty of Paris. When Britain declared war on the US in 1812, they united with the British to fight the Americans.
