ĐiÊn Biên Phủ 1954, Nấm Mồ Vĩ Đại

It ends on 21/7/1954

Les accords de Genève marquent la fin de la guerre d'Indochine qui, depuis 1946, opposait principalement la France au Việt Minh dirigé par Hô Chi Minh. Le traité est rédigé à la suite de la chute du camp retranché de Ðiện Biên Phủ.
Il est officiellement signé le 20 juillet 1954 à minuit puis ratifié le 21 juillet 1954, à Genève, entre la République française pour laquelle le général Henri Delteil représente le gouvernement Mendès-France et la République démocratique du Viêt Nam, nom utilisé depuis 1945 par le gouvernement Việt Minh.

Genève est une ville suisse située à l’extrémité ouest du Léman. Elle est la deuxième ville la plus peuplée de Suisse après Zurich.

The Geneva Conference was a conference among several nations that took place in Geneva, Switzerland from April 26 – July 20, 1954. It was intended to settle outstanding issues resulting from the Korean War and the First Indochina War. The part of the conference on the Korean question ended without adopting any declarations or proposals, so is generally considered less relevant. The Geneva Accords that dealt with the dismantling of French Indochina proved to have long-lasting repercussions, however. The crumbling of the French Empire in Southeast Asia would create the eventual states of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam), the State of Vietnam (the future Republic of Vietnam / South Vietnam), the Kingdom of Cambodia, and the Kingdom of Laos.
Diplomats from South Korea, North Korea, the People's Republic of China (PRC), the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), and the United States of America (US) dealt with the Korean side of the Conference. For the Indochina side, the Accords were between France, the Viet Minh, the USSR, the PRC, the US, the United Kingdom, and the future states being made from French Indochina. The agreement temporarily separated Vietnam into two zones, a northern zone to be governed by the Viet Minh rebels, and a southern zone to be governed by the State of Vietnam, then headed by former emperor Bảo Đại. A Conference Final Declaration, issued by the British chairman of the conference, provided that a general election be held by July 1956 to create a unified Vietnamese state. Despite helping create the agreements, they were not directly signed onto nor accepted by delegates of both the State of Vietnam and the United States. In addition, three separate ceasefire accords, covering Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, were signed at the conference.
The partition of French Indochina that resulted from the Conference. Three successor states were created: the Kingdom of Cambodia, the Kingdom of Laos, and the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, the new state won by Ho Chi Minh's Viet Minh. The State of Vietnam was shrunk to only cover the southern part of Vietnam. The division of Vietnam was intended to be temporary, with elections planned for in 1956 to reunify the country.
