Vietnam War. The Vietnam War (Vietnamese: Chiáº¿n tranh Viá»t Nam), also known as the Second Indochina War, and known in Vietnam as Resistance War Against America (Vietnamese: KhÃ¡ng chiáº¿n chá»ng Má»¹) or simply the American War, was a war that occurred in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from 1 November 1955 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975.
Since there was no declaration of the war, exact dates are sketchy. However, it is now widely accepted that the Vietnam War started on November 1, 1955 and lasted until April 30, 1975, which is roughly 20 years, or 19 years, 180 days to be precise.
