Vietnam was part of the southeast Asian colony of French Indochina, and was therefore ruled by the French before North Vietnam and the State sf Vietnam were granted independence.

In the 17th Century, French missionaries arrived in Vietnam. The Catholic priests received a friendly welcome from the Vietnamese people and they were allowed to live and work in the country. However, the Vietnamese authorities became concerned when the missionaries began to recruit the local people to Roman Catholicism. The converted Catholics were told to abandon their religious customs including that of taking several wives. The missionaries also instructed their followers to give their loyalty to God rather than to their Emperor. Hostility towards the Christian missionaries grew and over the years there were several cases of priests being murdered.
I believe it was because, the French were defeated by the Viet Minh rebels, which marked the end of French involvement in Vietnam. The Vietminh defeated the French and ended colonial rule.
When World War II began, Vietnam was a colony of France. The French colonial rule had been in place since the 19th century, but during the war, Japan occupied Vietnam from 1940 to 1945. This occupation led to significant changes in the political landscape, ultimately contributing to the rise of nationalist movements seeking independence from colonial rule.
Before World War II, Vietnam was under French colonial rule as part of French Indochina, which included Laos and Cambodia. The French established control over Vietnam in the mid-19th century, exploiting its resources and implementing a system of colonial administration. This period was marked by significant resistance from the Vietnamese people, leading to various uprisings against French authority. The colonial rule persisted until the Japanese occupation during World War II.
After World War II, Vietnam sought independence from French colonial rule, leading to the First Indochina War (1946-1954). The conflict ended with the Geneva Accords, which temporarily divided Vietnam at the 17th parallel into communist North Vietnam and anti-communist South Vietnam. This division set the stage for escalating tensions and eventually the Vietnam War, which lasted from the late 1950s until 1975, resulting in the reunification of Vietnam under communist control.

No, it got lower.
The Battle of Dien Bien Phu, fought between March and May 1954, marked the end of French colonial rule in Vietnam. The Viet Minh, led by General Vo Nguyen Giap, decisively defeated French forces, leading to the Geneva Accords, which resulted in the division of Vietnam into North and South. This battle significantly shifted the balance of power in the region and paved the way for the later conflict involving the United States.
Vietnam's violent revolution against French colonial rule inspired Algerian groups to launch their own anti-colonial rebellion.
Vietnam gained its independence from French colonial rule after a prolonged struggle, culminating in the First Indochina War, which ended in 1954 with the Geneva Accords recognizing Vietnam's division into North and South. Meanwhile, Cambodia gained independence in 1953 through diplomatic negotiations led by Prince Norodom Sihanouk, who successfully advocated for the end of French colonial control. Both countries faced significant challenges post-independence, including internal conflicts and the impact of the Vietnam War on regional stability.
In the 1880s, Vietnam was controlled by France, which had established a colonial presence in the region. The French began their colonization efforts in the mid-19th century, leading to the formal establishment of French Indochina in 1887, which included Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. This colonial rule significantly impacted Vietnamese society, economy, and culture.
