Vietnams history - short:

French occupied Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos in 1854. In Laos and Cambodia, there were no major protests, but in Vietnam increased resistance around 1900. In 1920, stood Ho Chi Minh for resistance. It was highest in the northern provinces. The French took advantage of Vietnam's resources. They had no production in Vietnam, but sailed raw materials to France. When WW2 started occupied the Japanese Vietnam. They may, however, use twice as many troops as normal due the strong resistance. When the war ended in 1945, proclaiming Ho Chi Minh Vietnam as an independent state.
It kept brief, however, when the British now occupied the country. The British closed again French in, so freedom was short. Ho Chi Minh had thought that when he helped the Allies, he would have freedom - but that did not happen.
resistance grew and the French became more and more distressed. In northern Vietnam had the French fortress with modern guns, airfield and about 30,000 soldiers. They considered it to be impregnable.

The agreement was also that within four years should be held free elections with the aim to re-unify the country. When the time came for the election, the United States was nervous about the outcome, so they postponed it - and it was never held. USA was terrified of Korea, after all, still a tinderbox. The threat from North Vietnam sympathizers grew. The result was more troops and more violence from both sides. A turning point was when a monk from Thien Mu Pagoda in Hue in 1963, drove to Saigon and in front of the presidential palace doused himself with gasoline and ignited it. The picture went around the world and public opinion turned against the war. President Diem had to resign and the United States appointed a general as president.
In 1969 dies Ho Chi Minh. US finds an excuse to bomb North Vietnam. The worst was orange napalm. That kills all growth. They had not reckoned with the affected people.
