Answer:

In a convergent plate boundary, two plates move towards one another. Due to this collision, the denser plate sinks below the less denser plate. It is marked by a subduction zone and deep-sea trench. Deep focus earthquakes originate in these regions. due to the high temperature and pressure at greater depth, partial melting takes place, as a result of which the plate melts and the magma being less dense, rises up towards the surface in the over-riding plate, forming volcanoes or chain of volcanic islands.

The San Andes Mountain also has formed in this way, by sharing a convergent plate boundary, where the denser Pacific plate (Oceanic crust) is subducting beneath the less dense South American plate (Continental plate).

<h3>Vietnam War</h3>

The Vietnam War and active U.S. involvement in the war began in 1954, though ongoing conflict in the region had stretched back several decades.

The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War, was a conflict in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from 1 November 1955 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975. It was the second of the Indochina Wars and was officially fought between North Vietnam and South Vietnam.

The Vietnam War was a long, costly and divisive conflict that pitted the communist government of North Vietnam against South Vietnam and its principal ally, the United States. The conflict was intensified by the ongoing Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.

The United States had provided funding, armaments, and training to South Vietnam's government and military since Vietnam's partition into the communist North and the democratic South in 1954. Tensions escalated into armed conflict between the two sides, and in 1961 U.S. President John F. The U.S. entered the Vietnam War in an attempt to prevent the spread of communism, but foreign policy, economic interests, national fears, and geopolitical strategies also played major roles.

The countries that were in this war were United States, China, Laos, France, South Korea, Soviet Union, North Korea, North Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Philippines.

More than 3 million people (including over 58,000 Americans) were killed in the Vietnam War, and more than half of the dead were Vietnamese civilians. Communist forces ended the war by seizing control of South Vietnam in 1975, and the country was unified as the Socialist Republic of Vietnam the following year.

In general, historians have identified several different causes of the Vietnam War, including: the spread of communism during the Cold War, American containment, and European imperialism in Vietnam.

1. How will you get these non-aligned (uncommitted) nations on your side????
This can be done many ways, my favorite is by using trade and economic ties. This is done by trading resources that the non-aligned nations might want or need.

2. How might actions affect your country? The other superpower?
These trade actions would increase trade within my country and the other nations. This would create an increase in jobs, money, and overall wellbeing.

3. How might being caught in a struggle between superpowers affect a developing nation?
Joining one specific side could result in benefits from that superpower, but the other superpower might cut off all diplomatic relationships. This could result in a cut of needed or wanted resources, or even war.
