Most Historians like to use 1961 as the starting point for the war. The Vietnam War was NOT a civil war. A civil war is two armies from the same nation fighting itself. North Vietnam & South Vietnam were separate countries. They were never one country called Vietnam until 1975.

Who fought one another during the Vietnam War?
North Vietnam verses South Vietnam. Which is one of the reasons people thought it was a civil war and the US should stay out of it. But that idea is incorrect: A civil war is fought by ONE nation against itself. Just because the word "Vietnam" or "Vietnamese" was in the sentence (North & South Vietnam) does not mean it was one nation. Vietnam was TWO nations; and the North was attacking the South, which was another nation (country), which disqualifies it as a civil war.
When did the Civil War erupt in Vietnam?
There was no "Vietnam Civil War." A civil war is a war in which ONE country is fighting against itself. N & S Vietnam were TWO separate countries from the very beginning (in 1954). They only became ONE country (one nation) when the North won the war in April of 1975. The normal starting date for the war, chosen by most historians, is the year 1961. Today, in the 21st century, if Vietnam fought amongst itself, it would be a civil war; as it is ONE nation.
