Officially, North Vietnam and South Vietnam engaged in the second of the Indochina Wars.
The Soviet Union, China, and other communist allies supported North Vietnam, while the United States and other anti-communist allies supported South Vietnam.
The conflict is frequently referred to as a Cold War-era proxy conflict. It lasted approximately 20 years, with the U.S. ceasing to directly participate in it in 1973.
The struggle also spread to nearby nations, escalating the Laotian and Cambodian Civil Wars, which led to the establishment of communist regimes in all three nations by the end of the conflict.
