Daidieu-Vietnam relations

Daidieu-Vietnam relations refer to the economic, political, and social relations between the Kingdom of Daidieu and. Official relations began since 1 January 1992. They were formerly a single nation that was gradually annexed by France in 1885. Since the in 1954, Vietnam has been split into East Vietnam (Daidrieu), North Vietnam, and South Vietnam. Although they co-operated against the French during the, relations between Daidieu, North Vietnam, and South Vietnam soured after the Geneva Accords in 1954, due to the socialist attitude in the North and the Catholic extremism in the South. In 1972, North Vietnam secretly announced plans to create a puppet state in Daidrieu the following year, causing a coup d'etat on 15 August, effectively transforming Daidrieu into a puppet state of Vietnam. Due to unpopularity towards Vietnamese occupation in 1985, a civil war happened in Daidieu until the 1987 Geneva Accords peacefully ended the conflict. Despite the accords, Daidieu didn't establish official relations with Vietnam until 1 January 1992, and since then, they maintain peaceful bilateral relations and extremely close diplomatic and bilateral relations despite historical rivalry.

Vietnam has an embassy in Ńwien King and Daidieu has an embassy in Hanoi. Both countries joined on 28 July 1995.

Background
France invaded in 1862 and gradually annexed the rest of Vietnam 21 years later. In September 1940, Japan launched an invasion of French Indochina, keeping the French colonial administration. In March 1945, Japan ousted the French and installed Emperor Bảo Đại as the head of state. Because France was unwilling to reconquer Indochina, accepted Franklin D. Roosevelt's request that Chiang would occupy Indochina. After Japan surrendered, they gave the weapons to the socialist Viet Minh and the monarchist Vietnamese Revolutionary Army (ARV). However, Chiang forced the French to withdraw from in exchange for the withdrawal of his troops from Vietnam in the following year.

In early 1946, the French landed a military force at Haiphong, initiating a conflict between the Viet Minh and French colonists. Once the French landed on Ńwien King on June 29, the Viet Minh and ARV began cooperating each other. Later, the French rejected Hồ Chí Minh's proposal of an autonomous State of Vietnam within the. After the creation of an "autonomous" State of Vietnam, tensions between the Viet Minh and French were rising, due to the lack of complete sovereignty for Vietnam. The First Indochina War continued until the Geneva Accords in 1954.

During the discussions on Indochina, Georges Bidault wanted to preserve French influence in Vietnam. On May 10, Phạm Văn Đồng, leader of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV), and Cúk Hiạ́w set up their positions. Cúk Hiạ́w, Emperor of Daidrieu, proposed a unification of Vietnam under monarchist rule. While the two opposed division of Vietnam, relations started to sour after Cuk Hiaw was willing to restore monarchist rule. On the morning 21 July 1954, an agreement was settled that Vietnam would be separated around the 17th parallel, Daidrieu would gain independence as an associated state of Vietnam, and unification elections would be held in 1956. However, Cúk Hiạ́w opposed the unification elections because the unified government would force him to abdicate, so the parties resolved the issue by revising the agreement to sever all ties between Daidrieu and North Vietnam.

1954-1972
Tensions began to rise between Daidrieu, North Vietnam, and South Vietnam because of Cuk Hiaw's Confucian isolationist policy. However, Daidrieu avoided the conflict in order to preserve the monarchy despite frequently condemning 's authoritarian and nepositic rule. Nethertheless, Daidrieu launched a failed coup d'etat against Diem on 19 September 1959 because of the mass execution of critics of Diem's one-man rule and Catholic values.

In 1964, confidence in Daidrieu's monarchy rapidly decreased mainly due to the coup d'etats in South Vietnam and the Viet Cong's plan to invade the Kingdom of Daidrieu. The critics condemned the Confucian isolationism and wanted to speak out and democratize Daidrieu. Due to fear of unrest, Cúk Hiạ́w willingly abdicated in the afternoon of October 6, 1964, and Crown Prince Thàng Cang took over. Despite the abdication, Thàng Cang still upheld Daidrieu's neutrality. Daidrieu began to participate in Non-Aligned Movement summits in 1964, and Thàng Cang played a major role in spreading democracy throughout the participants, condemning the Vietnam War and the.

However, Daidrieu ended its neutrality after the on 30 January 1968, which the Emperor condemned. Thàng Cang described it as the "darkest new year in our history". The 1972 Spring-Summer offensive increased popular support of South Vietnam. To protect Daidrieu from South Vietnam, began preparations for a coup d'etat in Daidrieu immediately after the start of the offensive. On 15 August 1972, Kim Nàu Szì launched a coup d'etat against the monarcchy for North Vietnam. He persued a schorched earth policy, causing a genocide against political prisoners in Daidrieu. They planned on executing the monarchy, but they were only able to assassinate Crown Prince Thien He and the rest of the monarchy was exiled to Huanzhou, Tseng.
