HURRY PLEASE!! What was H* Chi Minh’s main goal when he became the leader of the nationalist movement in Vietnam in 1940? to sto
p Communism from spreading to Vietnam to divide Vietnam into two separate countries to gain Vietnam’s independence from France to seek economic and military support from France
It was his dream to establish an independent Vietnamese country. He would first fight with the French who he would later defeat and become the leader of North Vietnam. Later on the North and South fought each other and despite U.S. support, the South was defeated and Vietnam was united under communist rule. But also, to gain Vietnams independence from France.
It started a revolution that showed the world that it was possible to overthrow an empire. It was the beginning of a push for democracy all over the world.
