I'd like to know more about the history of the Vietnam War.

The Vietnam War was a long and brutal conflict that began in the early 1950s and ended in 1975. It involved the United States, South Vietnam, North Vietnam, and various other countries. During the war, the US government sent troops to fight against communist forces in Vietnam, while also supporting the South Vietnamese military. The war resulted in the deaths of over 58,000 American soldiers, as well as hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese civilians. In the end, the US withdrew its forces from Vietnam and the country was reunified under the communist rule of North Vietnam.
