The US was trying to preserve the Republic of South Vietnam; an effort that failed.
You probably want to know which continent Vietnam is in. It is in Asia -south Asia.
they opposed the communist
No. JFK actually did not want to go into Vietnam. This leads some people to believe that Oswald (JFK's assassian) was actually paid to do the job by the people in charge of the companies who make money off of war by making weapons. That is a whole different topic though. But to answer your question no Kennedy did not want to go into vietnam.
The US was losing to North Vietnam as their troops were extremely skilled and in abundance. The deaths and casualties in the US army were exceeding greatly, and the Americans thought it was not worth stopping the communist aggression in the Far east as no one cared that much either. Also apparently, the people in south Vietnam didn't want to fight so the Americans didnt just want to fight from their side. basically, the main point is that NORTH VIETNAM TACTICS > US TACTICS and the deaths were just too much so they withdrew, leaving south Vietnam to be invaded by communists.
Both were members of the South East Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) - as was the Republic of South Vietnam.
Not sure how they were different but I do know that the US supported the south because we basically wanted to stop the spread of communism. The north was controlled by communists and we didn't want to south likewise
No war in Vietnam!The awnser is that they did not want the war to be happening and they were on the side of the south Vietnam war and was against that there was violence and wanted the south to be free of Vietnam but eventully they lost. Hop it helped
The U.S. didn't want communism to spread, so they sided with South Vietnam.
Preserve the Republic of South Vietnam from a communist take over. Which failed. then we pulled out of there.
he did not want the Vietnam war to start in the first place, but a bunch of rednecks ameriicans disagreed with him, and he ended up getting assassinated by a Jew .
