An Nam's brief history 安南 初学, a historical work written in Chinese about the history of Vietnam, was introduced into the first educational reform program in An Nam by the French government for the purpose of making a transition from the old Sino education to the French-Vietnamese education when they intended to establish the long-term rule of law in Indochina. Through this educational program, the ultimate aim of the French colonial government was to propagate the governing policy, colonial ideology and expand the power of science, technology, military, economy. On the other hand, they sought to bribe the Nguyen government and the Vietnamese patriotic people who were against their invasion and colonization. Those reactionary thoughts were inserted in and conveyed through the pages of history textbooks in a sophisticated way by the French government to teach Vietnamese students. In the process of studying this work, we discovered that the content of the book is filled with reactionary details with various tones such as seducement, bribery, intimidation and sometimes, praise for Vietnam - France relationship.
