2.Discuss fully the effects of the war on

In the protracted,
costly, and divisive Vietnam War, the communist administration of Vietnam
nations fought against each other with the aid of the United States. The situation
was made worse by the on-going Cold War but despite the fact that there had
been persistent violence in the area for many years prior to the Vietnam War
and American active involvement . The tragic nature of the conflict was
exacerbated by the enormous socio-political and historical divide between the
Americans and the Vietnamese, fueled by the resentment between mutually
incomprehensible individuals. Therefore, analyzing the Vietnam war is crucial
in determining the significance of certain entities such as Johnson and the
likes in the Gulf of Tonkin, the various alterations faced by the nation’s
citizens, and the negotiations effort at the year of Tenet.
