In the mid 19th century, the French with the aid
of the Spanish invaded this port city and destroyed
the fort. This event was the precursor to the long struggle
between the people of Vietnam and France leading to
the historical defeat of the French in 1954. In the
years after the defeat of the French, Vietnam was divided
into two separate countries and Saigon became the hub
of resettlement for many as people from north and central
Vietnam immigrated south. |
