What events led up to the Vietnam war
1. The split of Vietnam into North Vietnam and South Vietnam led to the formation of the Vietcong. 2. The Civil war between the Viet Cong and the South Vietnamese led to the Americans sending in ground troops. 3. The Americans invaded Vietnam so that communism wouldn't spread. 4. The primary cause of the Vietnam War was the invasion of the French shortly after World War II. By occupying the country, the French created an imbalance in the cultural lifestyle of the Vietnamese. This made the country unstable. 5. The Vietnamese had suffered under French colonial rule for nearly six decades and were not happy with the way that they were being treated. The most immediate effect of the Vietnam War was the staggering death toll. The war killed an estimated 2 million Vietnamese civilians, 1.1 million North Vietnamese troops, 200,000 South Vietnamese troops, and 58,000 U.S. troops. Those wounded in combat numbered tens of thousands more. The massive U.S. bombing of both North and South Vietnam left the country in ruins, and the U.S. Army's use of herbicides such as Agent Orange not only devastated Vietnam's natural environment but also caused widespread health problems that have persisted for decades. from sparknotes I didn't say it, sorry.
