What international agreement concluded the conflict in Indochina?

The Geneva Peace Accords were significant because they brought an end to the First Indochina War between the French forces and the Viet Minh in 1954. This international conference, held in Geneva, Switzerland, resulted in agreements that divided Vietnam into two separate countries: North Vietnam and South Vietnam, with a temporary demarcation line at the 17th parallel. The accords aimed to establish peace in Indochina by addressing the conflict and providing a framework for the future, yet it is important to note that they ultimately did not lead to lasting peace. The agreement is fundamental in understanding the subsequent developments in the region, particularly the escalation of the Vietnam War.
