The Vietnam War is generally considered to have begun in 1955, though the exact start date is debated. The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War, officially started on November 1, 1955, when the United States formally recognized the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) and began providing military and financial support against North Vietnam and the Viet Cong insurgency (North Vietnam was supported by the Soviet Union and China). This conflict arose after the First Indochina War ended in 1954, leaving Vietnam divided at the 17th parallel, with Ho Chi Minh leading the communist North and Ngo Dinh Diem heading the U.S .- backed South. It is important to note that the United States never officially declared war on North Vietnam; instead, Congress authorized troop deployments and military actions, making the Vietnam War technically a military conflict rather than a formally declared war under U.S. law. U.S. combat units were introduced in large numbers in 1965, escalating the conflict, and remained until troop withdrawals began in 1973. The war concluded with the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, leading to the unification of Vietnam under communist Britannica Historians sometimes debate alternative starting points, including 1954, when the Geneva Accords partitioned Vietnam, or 1959, when North Vietnam intensified guerrilla operations in the South. Despite these variations, 1955 is widely recognized as the official beginning of the Vietnam War.
