The French colonial territory known as the Indochinese Union (commonly called French Indochina) existed from 1887 to 1945. At its largest, the union comprised the present-day countries of Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. Shown here, French soldiers pose with local residents at a military post (early 1900s).
