The Vietnam War was a terrible war throughout the 1960's and 1970's. It was located in Vietnam, in southeast Asia. This war was not declared a war until long after it had finished, but was officially a 'police action'. On many levels it tore the US apart:

* Veterans were not given recognition * Protesters disrupted colleges and other institutions * Police brutality was rampant * The government withheld vital information from the public * The body count (on both sides) was horrendous
