What events and conditions caused growing conflicts between north and south Vietnam?

There was a threat of south Vietnam becoming communist .. and we of all countries did not want this to happen... it was known as the "domino effect" (named by President Eisenhower). This means that if one country falls to communism, they all will. What basically started all of the war was when a U.S. ship entered the Gulf of Tonkin. Northern Vietnam felt in danger because of our presence, so they fired at us. We had a reason to fire back so we did.


How did Geneva Conference cause the Vietnam war?

The Geneva Conference of 1954 aimed to resolve conflicts in Indochina, resulting in the temporary division of Vietnam at the 17th parallel into communist North Vietnam and anti-communist South Vietnam. This division was intended to be temporary, but it solidified the ideological split and fueled tensions between the two regions. The failure to hold national elections, as initially agreed, led to increased hostility, with the North supporting the Viet Cong insurgency in the South. Ultimately, these circumstances contributed to the escalation of military involvement by the United States, marking the beginning of the Vietnam War.


How did Vietnam end up being split in two?

The north was communist, the south was capitalist, which was determined by their supporter states, the USSR and the US after independence in 1954, however, this division was only meant to be temporary, with elections to re-unify the country. During the Nguyen Dynasty, The Nguyen agreed to leave half of Vietnam to the French. South Vietnam's ownership was transferred to US, and Communist Government tried to take over South Vietnam, which they successfully did.
