Answer: The account is based on proven facts and good reasoning.

Explanation:

Historical truth is often tainted by the perceptions and biases of the writer which is why Historical truths are so hard to come by. For this reason historians rather focus of Historical validity.

A Historical account that is valid is one that is based on proven facts usually drawn from multiple sources if possible. Also the historian compiling this account must use good reasoning such that other historians looking at the material can deem the account logical.

What was the result of the battle of dien bien phu
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The Battle of Dien Bien Phu was the decisive engagement in the first Indochina War (1946–54). After French forces occupied the Dien Bien Phu valley in late 1953, Viet Minh commander Vo Nguyen Giap amassed troops and placed heavy artillery in caves of the mountains overlooking the French camp. Boosted by Chinese aid, Giap mounted assaults on the opposition’s strong points beginning in March 1954, eliminating use of the French airfield. Viet Minh forces overran the base in early May, prompting the French government to seek an end to the fighting with the signing of the Geneva Accords of 1954.
