French Indochina
French Indochina was a place in Southeast Asia a long time ago. The French people went there and made it their own. It was made up of five countries: Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Myanmar.
The French people who lived there spoke French and ate French food, like croissants and baguettes. They built roads, schools, and offices to help them live and work there. They also brought Christianity, a religion from their home country, and tried to teach the local people to speak French and follow French customs.
The local people who lived there had their own languages and cultures before the French people came. They were not happy about the French taking over their land. They wanted to be free and rule their own countries.
After a long time, the local people started to fight back against the French people. They wanted their freedom and their own governments. This was a big fight that went on for many years, and it was very hard for both sides.
Eventually, the French people had to leave and the local people got their own countries back. Today, these countries are all separate and have their own cultures, languages, and governments.
