Vietnam: The Lost War

The United States engaged in a war that did not in any way endanger the lives of American citizens. Even the foreign affairs agency admitted that Vietnam did not inflict any harm on Americans. However, the idea of spreading communism is enough to send Americans to war. After years of peace the American government shatters everything when they began to ship soldiers off to war. Along with my disapproval of the war, Americans also did not want the war to go on. This can be seen at the Kent University incident where students were so upset by the war that they began to burn down buildings. The power behind anti war is very strong and is something that I agree with.

The newly acquired western lands were once believed to be deserts and unusable. But, news that came back from those who settled in the west had a completely opposite view.

Many people in the 1790s were not afraid of having titles of nobility brought back. Instead they were afraid of how the government may bring back the ideas and concepts that go along with nobility such as the social class.

The quote, “Britain’s wars for empire, far more than its mercantilist policies, dictated the economic fortunes of Britain’s North American colonies in the 18th century” is a valid statement. I feel that the wars affected the North American colonies more than mercantilism because winning the wars in North America represented wealth and opportunities while mercantilism only kept a steady flow of revenue.
