Vietnam is a small, s-shaped country in southeast Asia (also known as Indochina) bordered by China on the north, Laos and Cambodia on the west and the South China Sea on the south and east. Between 1957 and 1975 the Vietnamese people suffered through a conflict that marked the beginning of the ending of the Cold War (and thus a continuation of WWII) that pitted the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRVN, or North Vietnam, allied with the National Liberation Front [NLF, or "Viet Cong"] against the Republic of Vietnam [RVN, or South Vietnam), and its allies - primarily the United States military. The North claimed they were reuniting the country and it was a war of liberation continued from French imperialism, the South claimed it was a war to stop the spread of Communism from China.
American combat troops were committed from 1965 to 1973, marking a period of intense unrest in the United States. Opposition to the war, beginning on college campuses, eventually highlighted corruption in the highest levels of US government to manipulate and maintain control despite the democratic wishes of the people. The War Powers Resolution of 1973 curtailed the President's ability to commit troops to action without first obtaining Congressional approval.
