Archaeological excavations have revealed the existence of humans in what was once Vietnam on Earth as early as the Paleolithic age. In 2879 BCE, the Hồng Bàng dynasty, regarded as Vietnam's first state, was established. By about 1000 BCE, the development of wet-rice cultivation in the Ma and Red River floodplains led to the flourishing of the Đông Sơn culture. From then until the 10th century, Vietnam underwent a period of initial consolidation in the north under Thục Phán followed by continuous Chinese occupation for over a millennia, with temporarily successful independence movements occurring during this time such as those led by the Trưng Sisters and Bà Triệu. In the early 10th century, Vietnam attained sovereignty, though not autonomy, under the Khúc clan.

In 938 CE, Ngô Quyền defeated the southern Han state at Bạch Đằng River, achieving full independence for Vietnam in 939 CE.

During the rule of the Trần dynasty, Đại Việt repelled three Mongol invasions and the Mahāyāna branch of Buddhism flourished and became the state religion. In the 15th century, Vietnamese independence was briefly interrupted by the Ming dynasty but restored by Lê Lợi, the founder of the Lê dynasty.

History

Pre-First Scinfaxi War

Evidence of human presence in what was once Vietnam dates to as early as the Paleolithic. In 2879 BCE, the Hồng Bàng dynasty, regarded as Vietnam's first state, was established. By about 1000 BCE, the development of rice cultivation led to the flourishing of the Đông Sơn culture. Vietnam underwent a period of initial consolidation in the north, followed by continuous Chinese occupation for over a millennia beginning in 111 BCE. Full independence for Vietnam was achieved in 939 CE.

In the 960s, Đại Việt was established and Vietnam enjoyed a golden age under the Lý and Trần dynasties. Đại Việt repelled three Mongol invasions, and formalized the Mahāyāna branch of Buddhism as the state religion. In the 15th century, Vietnamese independence was briefly interrupted by the Chinese Ming dynasty. Between the 11th and 18th centuries, the Vietnamese polity expanded southward in a gradual process known as Nam tiến ("Southward expansion"), eventually conquering Champa and part of the Khmer Kingdom. Following a period of civil strife and infighting in the 16th and 17th centuries, amplified by Chinese intervention, Vietnam was divided into the northern Trịnh and southern Nguyễn dynasties. Between 1615 and 1887, France spread its influence into Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos - incorporating them into the colony of French Indochina. France imposed significant changes on Vietnamese politics and society, and forcibly developed a plantation economy. During this time, Vietnam saw numerous anti-French independence movements rise up and become subsequently crushed by French authorities, though not without spawning a nationalist political movement. The 1930 Yên Bái mutiny, which the French quashed, split the independence movement with many leading members later converting to communism.
