How was independence achieved in Vietnam?

Argumentatively, Vietnam never gained any independence from China. China always controlled Vietnam, that's why it was called IndoCHINA. France fought China and won Vietnam in the 1860s. So, again, argumentatively, Vietnam never was an independent nation until April 30, 1975. 1. Prior to 30 April 1975, there were TWO Vietnams, not one. 2. From 1946-1954 Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia were in transition (changing); a colony of France but not a colony of France...as they were in limbo; fighting. 3. From 1940-1945 under Japanese rule.

What country colonized indochina?

This is a question that is answered differently depending on political orientation. According to the Vietnamese, the first colonizers of Vietnam were the Chinese who attempted to integrate Vietnam into China at several points over the last 2000 years. (Of course, the Chinese argue that Vietnam was a province of China that managed to break away from Chinese control in fits and starts.) Outside of Vietnam, especially in the West, the colonization of Indochina (which included Vietnam) under the French is considered the first colonization of Vietnam. They disqualify the Chinese invasions either because the Chinese Occupation was distinct from colonization as it would be practiced in the Imperialist Period or because of the Euro-centric idea that only Western countries can colonize.


Which country controlled Vietnam during world war ll?

Vietnam wasn't a country during or before World War II. That region of the world was known as French Indochina. Tonkin came under the control of France at the end of the Sino-French War in 1885. French Indochina was formed by the combination of the French Protectorate of Annam, the French controlled region of Tonkin, and the colony of Cochinchina in the south finally in 1887. French Indochina comprised all of modern day Vietnam, and large parts of Laos, Cambodia, and Guangzhouwan (small portion of southern China).With the fall of France to Nazi Germany in the opening days of WWII, French control over the region began slipping when the puppet Vichy gave access to Tonkin to the Japanese in 1940. The Japanese used the opportunity to gain control over all of French Indochina, and remained in control until Japan surrendered to the US in August 1945.
