With the exception of the United Kingdom, every one of the five permanent United Nations Security Council members was involved in Vietnam. France fought an anti-colonial revolution from the end of World War II until 1954 called the First Indochina War. The United States was tangentially involved in the First Indochina War and actively promoted the creation of South Vietnam, which was targeted for annexation by USSR client-state North Vietnam. When the USSR supported North Vietnam attacked South Vietnam in the Second Indochina War (called the Vietnam War in the USA), P.R. China joined North Vietnam in providing supplies and troops.
