To increase cultivation in Vietnam, the French began to dig canals and drain lands to irrigate the fields in Mekong Delta region.Vast irrigation networks began to be constructed for a massive production of crops. The result was ample production of rice areas and its export in a huge amount to the international market.
France progressively carved for itself a huge colony, which would form French Indochina in 1887. France continued to rule Vietnam as a colony until France's defeat in the First Indochina War and the proclamation of Vietnam's independence in 1954.
