How might imperialism be one of the causes of Vietnam War?
If someone were to class "communism" as a form of "imperialism" then yes that was one of the causes of the Vietnam War. The French Indochina War (1st Indochina War) was "basically" a war of imperialism; and had NOT the Viet Minh been backed by the communists, the US would have probably stayed clear of that conflict. But since the now (then) North Vietnamese were COMMUNISTS, and clearly supported by the Communist Superpowers, and we, the US, were a "pledged enemy" of communism; WE had to stop the attempted conquest of SOUTH Vietnam. It was only the geography of the land, and the fear of starting World War III (the involvement of the Communist Superpowers-as had happened in the Korean War when Red China entered into it) that prevented us from saving the South.
