Hô Chi Minh, pseudonyme de Nguyễn Sinh Cung, puis également connu sous le nom de Nguyễn Tất Thành (grandes espérances), puis Nguyễn Ái Quốc (le patriote) ou encore « l'oncle Hô », est un militant communiste et homme d'État vietnamien. Il est né le 19 mai 1890 à Hoàng Trù, (Province de Nghệ An) et mort le 2 septembre 1969, à Hanoï. Il est le fondateur de l'actuel Parti communiste vietnamien et de la République démocratique du Viêt Nam.
En 1975, le nom de Hô-Chi-Minh-Ville (Thành Phố Hồ Chí Minh) fut donné à la ville la plus peuplée du Vietnam, l'ancienne Saïgon..

Historical background


FRENCH UNION - VIETNAM - HO CHI MINH

(1946-1948)

Ho Chi Minh (1890-1969) founded the Viet-Minh in 1941. On August 22, 1945, his militia took Hanoi and massacred the Europeans. On August 25, Emperor Bao Dai (1932-1945) abdicated and on September 2, 1945, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam was proclaimed in Hanoi. On March 6, 1946, Ho Chi Minh, who had become President of the Republic, joined the French Union with Cambodia and Laos, but France's refusal to hand over Cochinchina to him and the bombardment of Haiphong on November 24, 1946 put an end to the negotiations: the war began on December 19, 1946. It was to last eight years until the year 1954. Bao Dai was restored (1945-1955). Unleashed by their supposed American allies, the French surrendered at Diên Biên Phu on May 7, 1954, leaving thousands dead in extermination and re-education camps where survival rates were vastly lower than those in Nazi stalags..
