Ho Chi Minh had identified a State model (State type) for Vietnam while he was travelling to find a path to national salvation. In 1920, he chose the state model of Union of Soviet Socialist Republics after deciding to follow the proletarian revolution, typically the October Revolution in Russia. The Party's first political platform (drafted by Ho Chi Minh) officially identified this State model with the name "Government of workers, soldiers and peasants”. Although it was the most advanced State model at that time, some limitations were found when it had been applied to Vietnam. The VIII Central Conference (1941) chaired by Ho Chi Minh made a reasonable adjustment by establishing the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. The success of the August Revolution was an objective and concrete demonstration of the correctness of Ho Chi Minh thought, as well as the revolutionary way of the Communist Party of Vietnam. It was also an event that realized his thought on the State model for Vietnam.
