Who did the ANZACs fight?

Answer 1

ANZAC comes from "Australian and New Zealand Army Corps", used to describe formations and units comprised of both Australian and New Zealander soldiers. The original ANZAC's were the soldiers who fought the Turks at Gallipoli, from 1915 to 1916. The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps were disbanded in 1916, after the withdrawal from Gallipoli, but other ANZAC formations were formed and fought in both the Middle East and the Western Front. ANZAC formations were also formed during the Vietnam War. Technically, the ANZAC's fought only the Turks and Germans in World War I and the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces in Vietnam, but in Australasia, the term "ANZAC" is used to describe Australian and New Zealander forces in general. In this broader sense, ANZAC forces fought Turkey, Germany, Italy, North Korea, People's Republic of China, North Vietnam and Viet Cong (and possibly others e.g. Pathet Lao, Khmer Rouge)
