France's involvement in the Vietnam War stemmed from its desire to reestablish colonial control over Indochina after World War II. Following Japan's occupation during the war, the Vietnamese nationalist movement, led by the Viet Minh under Ho Chi Minh, sought independence. France's attempt to regain its former colonies led to the First Indochina War (1946-1954), which ultimately set the stage for increased conflict and U.S. involvement in the region, culminating in the Vietnam War. The struggle was rooted in the broader context of decolonization and Cold War tensions.
