Conflict Information report


   THE VIETNAM WAR
In the Vietnam war the youngest soldier killed was a 16 year old. The American dads married Vietnamese women and their kids would have two cultures that were in the vietnam war.
The war started in 1957 and ended in 1975.
North Vietnam wanted South Vietnam to have the same rules and became communists. Some people in South Vietnam wanted that to happen, they were known as the Viet Cong. North Vietnam  and  the Viet Cong were known as the Coalition Forces. They fought against the Allied Troops of South Vietnam, South Korea, USA, Australia, and NZ.


During the war the communists from the Soviet Union and China were trying to spread Communism throughout the world. Because both countries are in close proximity to Vietnam, they decided that they should invade to spread their form of government. They used guns, tanks and Agent Orange to kill the 6,00,000 people who died in the Vietnam War.
In 1974 America  packed up and left because it was a War they couldn’t win. All of the soldiers were sent home and those knew  in death were also sent home. There are heaps of  soldiers still missing for.
After the war ended in April of 1975 an independent Vietnam finally unified - people began to write their histories of the war.

The oldest man killed was 62 years old and the youngest killed was 16 yrs old.
