Vietnam is one of the most beautiful countries in Southeast Asia. This Vietnamese speaking country has a population over 80,000,000. The capital city is Hanoi, and the county is very rich in natural resources. However, Vietnam has a bloody history called the Vietnam War. This war started in September 2, 1945, when the new communist government called the Democratic Republic of Vietnam as an independent country. This communist government led by Ho Chi Minh who was not popular in all over the country. At that time, Vietnam was divided into two parts, the South Vietnam, which was democratic and the North Vietnam, which was communist. Ho Chi Minh was the leader of the communist North Vietnam who was supported by the European Union. He wanted to take over South Vietnam, and wanted to represent it as a communist area.

Being two parts; the communist North Vietnam and the non-communist South Vietnam, the Vietnam became unstoppable. The French were in trouble trying to keep the communist North Vietnamese out of South Vietnam. Seeing this crucial situation, the U.S. government sent financial help to French. Actually, the U.S. government wanted to eliminate the communist threat from Vietnam. "French colonial forces are defeated by Ho Chi Minh, paving the way for U.S.A. intervention in the Vietnam War  (Cooper 17). Addressing this statement, Cooper revealed the main cause of the U.S.A. involvement in the Vietnam War. As a communist leader, Ho Chi Minh wanted to make a communist Vietnam. He also was not very happy about French colonization. He was against this process from the beginning of his political career, and was favored by the European Union, which was the host of communist. Economically, the Vietnam War had a significant importance in the history. Most importantly, any kind of war is always very destructive for a nation's economic progress. This war was not different than that. Mary H. Cooper told about economic restrictions against Vietnam, "Eighteen years after the last American forces withdrew from Vietnam; the Un
