Until World War II, Vietnam was ruled by French colonial authorities as part of French Indochina. The rise of communism in Vietnam was largely influenced by the socio-economic hardships under colonial rule, widespread poverty, and nationalist sentiments. After World War II, the Viet Minh, a communist-led independence movement founded by Ho Chi Minh, gained popularity by advocating for national liberation and social reform. The discontent with colonial rule and the desire for independence fueled the growth of communism, leading to the First Indochina War against French colonial forces.
