Lesson exploring why Diem’s government became so unpopular in South Vietnam.
The lesson starts with a recap of Dien Bien Phu and a link to the chaos after the French defeat. Moving on students review Diem’s profile, and using the video describe why he may have been unpopular in South Vietnam. This is consolidated with the first hand out for students to highlight and list reasons for his unpopularity. Students then complete the table exploring how different factors led to the Civil War/tension in the South. The lesson ends with a hypothesis of what the US would do now, linking in previous learning from the Korean War and Cold War context.
