Did the Vietnam war result in any changes in culture?

Yes, it did. The Vietnam war was the first war seen on TV and this changed many people's view of war. Every night on the evening news war coverage was part of the news and this resulted in protests against the war. This is one reason the evening news does not cover the wars we are in today. How we view who we are and what we do is often shaped by the media and it was this way in the 1960's and the Vietnam war. Music also reflected the war with protest songs and songs about the "summer of love". This changed music to this day and resulted in new forms of music never made popular before. Clothing also reflected the times of anti war and the "hippie" look. These looks have come back to some extent and still influence the culture today. So much of today is founded on the years of the Vietnam war and serve as a benchmark in our history.


What does Vietnam's territory consist of?

Two different terms: 1. Territory that describes Vietnam's actual geographic lands and waters. 2. Territory that describes Vietnam's lands or waters owned by Vietnam but exist outside Vietnam's actual country (geographic location). Example for #2: The US owned (or owns or controls) the island of Guam in the Pacific Ocean. Guam exists outside of the US North American continent and is NOT a state (like Hawaii); so it is US Territory. Most people are unaware if Vietnam possesses any territories outside of it's national borders.
