Ho Chi Minh was the first president of Vietnam. He declared independence from France on September 2, 1945 although France continued to rule the country until May 1954 when the "1954 Geneva Agreements" were signed and Vietnam was split into TWO TEMPORARY MILITARY DEMARCATION AREAS, with the Viet Minh (Ho Chi Minh's government) to go north and the French to go south.
The US violated the 1954 Geneva agreements establishing the "Republic of South Vietnam" and installed the Catholic dictator, Ngo Dien Diem into power as president in the south.
