Best Answer

American invlovement in Vietnam, which escalated into full-scale war, began with an American political idea called the "domino theory." This concept of foreign relations, now discredited, posited that the spread of Communism must be stopped in Vietnam or it would spread to all the neighboring countries and eventually dominate the world.
