Explanation:

The decision to invade Vietnam was made by Napoleon III in July 1857. It was the result not only of missionary propaganda but also, after 1850, of the upsurge of French capitalism, which generated the need for overseas markets and the desire for a larger French share of the Asian territories conquered by the West. The naval commander in East Asia, Rigault de Genouilly, long an advocate of French military action against Vietnam, was ordered to attack the harbor and city of Tourane (Da Nang) and to turn it into a French military base. Generally arrived at Tourane in August 1858 with 14 vessels and 2,500 men; the French stormed the harbor defenses on September 1 and occupied the town a day later. Generally soon recognized, however, that he could make no further progress around Tourane and decided to attack Saigon. Leaving a small garrison behind to hold Tourane, he sailed southward in February 1859 and seized Saigon two weeks later.
