The war began after Vietnam was divided into two parts following the end of French colonial rule. Tensions grew as both sides wanted to reunite the country under different political systems.
Millions of people lost their lives, including civilians and soldiers. The war also caused massive destruction and led to protests worldwide, especially in the U.S.
In 1975, North Vietnam captured Saigon, leading to the reunification of Vietnam under a communist government.
