Korean War. The 17th parallel was Vietnam.
17th Parallel.
It helped divide the two nations so we could win the Vietnam war faster.
17th parallel
South Vietnam would be like today's "Republic of South Korea" at the current 38th Parallel. Only it would be the "Republic of South Vietnam" at the 17th Parallel.

At the Geneva Conventions in 1954 Vietnam was divided into two, communist north and democratic south; at the17th parallel.
During the Viet War from '55 thru '75, there were two Vietnams: North Vietnam & South Vietnam; they were divided at the 17th parallel.
Like Korea; a north and south Korea divided at the 38th parallel. Only it would be a north and south Vietnam divided at the 17th parallel.
The Geneva Accords of 1954, which ended the First Indochina War, created two Vietnamese states, one controlled by the Viet Minh north of the 17th parallel and one controlled by the State of Vietnam (the former administrators of colonial Vietnam) south of the 17th parallel. The United States and France maintained their defense of the State of Vietnam (which would become the Republic of Vietnam or "South Vietnam"), which prevented the Viet Minh from forcibly uniting the two Vietnams until 1975.
The outcomes were NOT the same: 1. Communists were stopped at the 38th parallel in the Korean War. 2. Communists conquered South Vietnam (winning the war) in April 1975.
