Which international agreement temporarily divided Vietnam at the 17th parallel and addressed the end of the conflict in Indochina?

• A. Geneva Accords
• B. Ceasefire
• C. Ho Chi Minh Trail
• D. War Powers Act

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is recognizing the international agreement that ended the First Indochina War and temporarily split Vietnam. The Geneva Accords, signed in 1954, set up a temporary division at the 17th parallel, with plans for nationwide elections to reunify the country later. They also established a ceasefire and the withdrawal of French forces, addressing the end of the conflict in Indochina.

The other options don’t fit as the name of the agreement: a ceasefire is part of what the Geneva Accords accomplished but is not the agreement itself; the Ho Chi Minh Trail was a supply route used during the conflict; the War Powers Act is a U.S. law about presidential war authority, not related to ending Indochina.
