What was the impact of the Great Depression of 1929 on Vietnam ?
The Great Depression of the 1930s which shattered most economies of the world had a severe impact on Vietnam too.

(ii) These provinces were amongst the poorest, had an old radical tradition and were called the ‘electrical fuses' of Vietnam. When the Great Depression started showing its impact, people started demonstrating against the colonial government.
