The Viet Cong, officially known as the National Liberation Front (NLF), was founded in 1960 in South Vietnam. Its formation was driven by a combination of political, social, and economic factors. The communist North Vietnamese government, led by Ho Chi Minh, sought to unify the country under communist rule and saw the Viet Cong as a means to achieve this goal. The Viet Cong was also fueled by discontent among many South Vietnamese peasants and marginalized groups who were unhappy with the corrupt and oppressive government in the south.
