National independence must always be associated with the freedom and happiness of the people. The history of the nation forever remembers September 2, 1945, when President Ho Chi Minh read the Declaration of Independence giving birth to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam). It was no coincidence that when opening that immortal heroic piece of literature, he immediately quoted the 1776 Declaration of Independence of the United States: "All men are created equal. They are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" and the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen of the French Revolution in 1791: "Men are born free and with equal rights, and must always remain free and with equal rights". The August Revolution of 1945 led by the Communist Party of Vietnam had no other purpose than to bring independence and freedom to the country and rights to the people. It must be said that in Vietnam, the first people to raise the flag against the French invaders were patriotic kings and patriotic Confucian scholars. From the Can Vuong movement led by King Ham Nghi to the Yen The uprising led by Hoang Hoa Tham was a long and tragic journey of fighting the invaders but in the end all failed. The Communist Party of Vietnam took on the historic mission of raising the flag of national, democratic, and people's revolution to liberate the country from foreign domination, abolish the old regime and establish and build a new regime, a new and more progressive life. Revolutionary and humane character is shown there. Having gone through many ups and downs of the times, that has not changed a bit. There have been shifts in strategy and tactics, but the noble goal of the path chosen by the Party and Uncle Ho remains the same in the spirit of "being unchanging, responding to all changes". The revolutionary goal, in short, is still "national independence and socialism".
