Vietnamese Communist Party
The Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), also known as the Vietnamese Communist Party (VCP), is the founding and sole legal party of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Founded in 1930 by Hồ Chí Minh, the CPV became the ruling party of North Vietnam in 1954 and then all of Vietnam after the collapse of the South Vietnamese government following the Fall of Saigon in 1975. Although it nominally exists alongside the Vietnamese Fatherland Front, it maintains a unitary government and has centralized control over the state, military, and media. The supremacy of the CPV is guaranteed by Article 4 of the national constitution. The Vietnamese public generally refer to the CPV as simply "the Party" () or "our Party" ().

Lý Tự Trọng
Lý Tự Trọng (20 October 1914 in Thailand – 21 November 1931 in Ho Chi Minh City, Saigon; born Lê Hữu Trọng) was a Vietnamese revolutionary, executed by the French when he was only 17 years old. He is considered to be a revolutionary martyr. In 2010, his remains were identified in District 10, Ho Chi Minh City, and he was reburied in his parents' home town, the Việt Xuyên commune in the district of Thạch Hà.

He did that to protect Phan Bội Châu, who was speaking at the rally. There was a fear Phan Boi would be assassinated, due to the inflammatory and Marxist-oriented content of his speech. He fled south as a fugitive. Trong was arrested 10 days later in the town of Khám lớn Cần Thơ, about south-west of Saigon. He was brought back to Saigon, hastily tried by French of ...
