communism was not contained in Vietnam
America's failure in Vietnam resulted in the collapse of its containment policy, as communism was not contained in Vietnam; the country was unified under communist rule following the fall of Saigon in 1975. Additionally, the failure led to a reassessment of U.S. foreign policy and military engagement in conflicts worldwide, contributing to a more cautious approach in subsequent interventions. Ultimately, the Vietnam War left a lasting impact on American society and politics, shaping public perceptions of military involvement.
