The statement that would come after "Vietnam was divided at the 17th parallel" is:

**The U.S. fought the Vietnam War.**

This is because the division at the 17th parallel occurred after the First Indochina War, which resulted in the Geneva Accords of 1954, leading to the establishment of North and South Vietnam. The U.S. involvement escalated after this division, particularly during the Vietnam War.

The other options, such as Ho Chi Minh declaring independence and Japanese occupation, occurred earlier in Vietnam's history.
