Which group supported communism in South Vietnam?

• A. Viet Cong
• B. ARVN
• C. Viet Minh
• D. Khmer Rouge

Answer: (A)

In South Vietnam, the group that promoted communism was the Viet Cong, also known as the National Liberation Front. They were a communist insurgent movement operating inside the South, backed by North Vietnam, with the goal of overthrowing the anti-communist government in Saigon and unifying the country under a communist system. The ARVN was the South Vietnamese army defending the government, not advocating communism. The Viet Minh led the earlier struggle against the French and was centered more in the north, while the Khmer Rouge operated in Cambodia, not South Vietnam.
