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.
