Religion formed an integral part of the social and cultural life of the Vietnamese people.
Introducing Christianity was intolerant of the easy going attitude and Vietnamese reverence of the supernatural. Through Christianity the French tried to exercise control over the religious life of the Vietnamese.
This brought the Vietnamese into conflict with the French. Though the French were succesful in crushing the Scholars Revolt, the Hoa Hao Movement became popular. Through this movement Huynh Phu So tried to address many social evils but the French declared him madand exiled him to Laos.
Though the popular struggles put down by the French they served as inspiration for the patriots.
