The Geneva Accords of 1954, which ended the First Indochina War, created two Vietnamese states, one controlled by the Viet Minh north of the 17th parallel and one controlled by the State of Vietnam (the former administrators of colonial Vietnam) south of the 17th parallel. The United States and France maintained their defense of the State of Vietnam (which would become the Republic of Vietnam or "South Vietnam"), which prevented the Viet Minh from forcibly uniting the two Vietnams until 1975.
