That's not correct. Vietnam was colonized by France in the 19th century, not Austria.
Brief timeline:
- French missionaries and traders were active from the 17th–18th centuries, and military intervention increased in the 19th century.
- 1862: Treaty of Saigon ceded parts of southern Vietnam (Cochinchina) to France.
- By the 1880s France had established control over Annam and Tonkin after the Sino-French War and related treaties.
- 1887: The French government formed French Indochina, which brought Vietnam (Cochinchina, Annam, Tonkin), Cambodia, and later Laos under French rule.
Austria (and later Austria-Hungary) did not have colonies in Southeast Asia. Would you like more details or sources about French colonization of Vietnam?
