Explanation:
The Battle of Dien Bien Phu was the last battle in the Vietnamese war of independence. It lasted from March 13 to May 7, 1954. Until then, Vietnam was part of the French colonial empire.
It was the decisive battle of the First Indochina War and ended with the total victory of the Viet Minh led by Vo Nguyen Giap and the surrender of the French forces. The outcome of the battle influenced the progress of the negotiations between the two warring parties under way at the Geneva conference, leading to the end of the war and the signing of the peace agreements concluded on July 21, 1954, under which France had to accept to withdraw its troops from the entire French Indochina, while Vietnam was temporarily divided into two parts along the 17th parallel.
