The local struggle in Vietnam was emblematic of the broader Cold War conflict as it represented the ideological battle between communism and capitalism. The U.S. supported the South Vietnamese government to prevent the spread of communism, viewing Vietnam as a crucial front in the fight against Soviet influence. Conversely, North Vietnam, backed by the Soviet Union and China, sought to unify the country under a communist regime, making it a proxy battleground for superpower rivalry. This local conflict thus encapsulated the global tensions of the Cold War, highlighting the stakes involved in regional conflicts during that era.
There were two hot battles that took place during the Cold War. The Korean Conflict and the Vietnam War were associated with the superpowers. The Cuban Missile Crisis was pretty key. The other was the Berlin Blockade.

The two super powers we're the U.S. and the Soviet Union/USSR
After the Cold War, the United States emerged as the world's leading superpower. Even as a superpower, the US cannot enforce all of its policies on the rest of the countries in the world.
The possibility of superpower conflict was frightening due to the immense destructive capacity of nuclear weapons possessed by the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. A direct confrontation could lead to a catastrophic global war, resulting in unprecedented loss of life and widespread devastation. Additionally, the ideological divide between capitalism and communism heightened tensions, making diplomatic resolutions seem increasingly difficult. This environment of fear and uncertainty contributed to a pervasive anxiety about the future and the safety of humanity.
