The United States entered the Vietnam war because they wanted to stop the spread of communism into South Vietnam and the rest of Asia.b. One specific historical difference between the United States experience in the Korean War and in the Vietnam War was the length of the wars and their endings. The Korean War lasted only 3 years, and ended with an armistice between the governments of China, North Korea, South Korea, and the United States and an agreement that Korea would stay divided following the war. The Vietnam War lasted for 10 years and ended when communist North Vietnam took over South Vietnam and unified the country as one socialist republic.c. One specific historical effect of the Vietnam War on United States society was that the United States people lost trust in government leaders.

For as long as they could remember, black people were separated and treated differently because they were viewed as inferior, a racist ideal that inspired activists like Malcolm X to stand up for black pride and nationalism.c. One effect of Malcolm X's point of view was the black power movement of the 1960s and 1970s. In this movement, supporters were not afraid to use violent measures to achieve their goals of racial justice, equality, and pride, as well as the growing support for ideas of black separatism beginning to emerge and take root in black communities.Which of the following indicates the MOST significant meaning of the Half-Way Covenant for the Puritan settlements?The Puritan church had begun to lose its influence.The Puritan church was becoming more accepting.The Puritan church was hoping to expand its membership.The Puritan church had a change in leadership.and contributed to the development of the United States by...Which of the following illustrates the primary differences between the New England and Southern colonies?

One immediate reason for Reagan's victory in the 1980 election was his promise to bring the American military strength, economy, and defense system to new heights. As a frontrunner to the rise of conservatism, Reagan promised to increase defense spending, stimulate the economy by following supply side economics, and restore faith back into the American government.b. One change in United States politics in the 1960s and 1970s that contributed to Reagan's victory was the rise of the counterculture. In his campaign, Reagan made sure to appeal to conservatives and evangelical christians that disagreed with the counter culture's attack on traditional values, offering an optimistic vision of America's future.c. One difference between Reagan's policies and Roosevelt's policies was that Reagan believed government was the problem in fixing the economy, while Roosevelt believed government was the solution.
