Ngô Đình Diệm
Ngô Đình Diệm was the first President of South Vietnam, serving from 1955 until his assassination in 1963. His regime was characterized by its staunch anti-communism and its controversial policies regarding Buddhism, which led to widespread protests and unrest, including the notable self-immolation of Thích Quảng Đức. His government's suppression of Buddhist practices and beliefs ultimately contributed to a loss of support and paved the way for political change in the region.
