After the end of World War II, the United States entered the Cold War. This battle of ideologies between the US and Soviet Union caused a global conflict between the ideas of capitalism and communism. The US, fearing the spread of communism around the world, adapted the policy of containment. This foreign policy was focused on stopping the global spread of communism. In order to do this effectively, the United States entered the Vietnam War in hopes of stopping the spread of communism to Southe Vietnam and stopping communists leaders (like Minh) from gaining more political power.

the assassination of president lincoln was just one part of a larger plot to decapitate the federal government of the u.s. after the civil war. the first reaction to lincoln’s death was disbelief. then it quickly changed to grief. abraham lincoln’s death created an outpouring of grief from citizens in both the north and the south.

explanation:

lincoln was the first u.s. president to be assassinated. president abraham lincoln, america’s civil war leader, was assassinated just five days after confederate general robert e. lee surrendered his army at appomattox court house, ending the four-year war between the states. on the evening of april 14, 1865, lincoln was attending a performance of our american cousin at ford’s theatre in washington, d.c. john wilkes booth – a 26-year old actor, confederate sympathizer, and white supremacist – slipped into the presidential box and shot lincoln in the head. john wilkes booth and his conspirators had initially planned to kidnap lincoln to save the confederate states. but as the confederacy faltered, booth’s thoughts turned to murder. booth may have decided to act on his hatred after lincoln endorsed giving the right to vote to african-american men who had served in the union army.
