French colonialism in Vietnam lastedmore than six decades. By the late 1880s, the French controlled Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia,which were collectively referred to asIndochine Français(French Indochina). Indochina became one of France’s most lucrative colonial possessions. Itwas part of a French empire that spanned northern and western Africa,as well as islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific. To justify their imperialism, the French developed theirown principle called themission civilisatrice(or ‘civilising mission’). It was, in effect, a French form of the English ‘white man’s burden’. Frenchimperialists claimed it was their responsibility to colonise undeveloped regions in Africa and Asia, to introduce modern political ideas, social reforms, industrial methods and new technologies. Without European intervention, these places would remain backward, uncivilised and impoverished. Themission civilisatricewas a facade: the real motive for French colonialism was profit and economic exploitation. French imperialism was driven by ademand for resources, raw materials and cheap labour. The development of colonised nations was scarcely considered, except where ithappened to benefit French interests.
