Detailed explanation-1: -The Korean War and the Vietnam War-both “proxy wars” between the communist and capitalist camps and therefore significant parts of the Cold War-are among the fiercest military conflicts of the last century.
Detailed explanation-2: -Although the same reasons caused both the Vietnam and Korean Wars, the circumstances and the peculiarities of them were quite different. The similarities of the two wars were the same ideological background, the confrontation of two super nations, the US and the URSS, and their economic and political systems.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some of the similarities are striking. In both Vietnam and Korea the Communist and Western powers had divided their cold war ambitions by making two countries out of one, artificially setting the boundary along a mythical line of latitude.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Vietnam War became a quintessential, international Cold War conflict. It became a war that the United States was fighting singlehandedly, against the advice of their allies in North America and Europe; a war directly between the United States and the Communist Bloc.
