Solution

The correct option is C Cochin-China
Of all the regions in French Indochina, only Cochin-China was directly under the French as a colony. The rest of the regions were territories of France but not colonies. The difference between Cochin-China and the rest of the regions was that the latter were protectorates. This means that the protectorates had native rulers but followed the rules of the French government.
