Yes same as China, Vietnam had gone thru a century of humiliation at the hands of western powers.China was severely weakened, and Vietnam got colonized.
We cannot simply be better off with that kind of condition.
It’s always the case. If you are weak then hooligans and rapists coming. In the case of Vietnam the French used protection of catholic rights as excuse for aggression.
Following a series of military defeats the Nguyen were forced to cede south Vietnam to France in the Treaty of Saigon of 1862.
