At the time of the Vietnam War, North Vietnam was led by Ho Chi Minh, who was the founder of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. South Vietnam was led by President Ngo Dinh Diem until 1963 when he was overthrown and later by Nguyen Van Thieu.
In 1954, the Vietminh forces of Vietnam defeated the French at the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, and the nation was temporarily divided into two sections, north and south. The people of the south chose Ngo Dinh Diem as their ruler and Ho Chi Minh ruled the north. Diem refused to go along with the planned elections in 1956 to unite the nation so the Vietminh members in the south created the Viet Cong and the war between north and south for control of the country began. Diem realized he would probably lose the elections. Many communists had moved south from the north and would probably not vote for Diem's regime. The US encourage Diem with aid and money. He was even considered a "George Washington of South Vietnam" by some of the American media. With US support, Diem felt he could defeat the communists so he declared a republic in South Vietnam. The government of South Vietnam requested military advisors from the United States to help train the South Vietnamese army. MrV
AnswerHo Chi Minh was the political leader of Vietnamese army otherwise known as Vietminh. He was a communist leader who, at first, fought against the French. He then became the leader of the Vietcong who were based in South Vietnam and there aim was to unify North and South Vietnam into one.
Only North Vietnam fought against America since the Americans had sided with North Vietnam at the time. The war involved with America began in 1954 and ended January of 1975. It extended at least 21 years, give or take.
The war was fought in both North & South Korea. This contrasts with Vietnam, in which the ground war was totally fought in South Vietnam; however, the USAF/USN fought the AIR WAR over NORTH Vietnam.
in vietnam many people died but it was the south with the US on their side against the north with Russia and durring that time north vietnam with russia on their side were able to advance and take controll of the south untill the US came and supported the south which brought it to the border that they have now which is divided in half. but overall the south was good north bad and the north was way stronger because we had to retreat back to the US because the north was too powerful.
