After the country was divided in two following the Geneva Conference in 1954, tensions and clashes began to escalate around 1955. Developing within the framework of the policy of containing the spread of communism in the context of the Cold War, the war over time turned into a large-scale military intervention by the United States. The conflict caused great human losses and ended in 1975 with the victory of the North.
