Answer:

The right answer is:

A. increasing mistrust of the government.

Explanation:

The credibility of the political system and of the political class was undermined by both events. Since JFK, the successive administrations did not tell the whole truth about the war in Vietnam, they kept telling the pubic America and her allies were winning the war; that perception was brutally challenged by the 1968 Tet Offensive by the Communist Viet Cong in South Vietnam, a military setback but a great coup d´image for the Vietnamese guerillas fighting the pro-American regime. So, in 1969, Richard Nixon was elected under the promise he´d extricate the USA from the Southeast Asian nightmare with honor. The Watergate scandal of 1972-1974 severely eroded the aura and prestige of the presidency, as Nixon´s lies and justice obstruction became public. It ended with his resignation from the presidency.

Alecsey [184]

The correct order of the events is:

1. France colonizes Indochina;

2. France fights communist forces in Indochina;

3. France and the United States support an unpopular government in South Vietnam;

4. Vietnamese communists declare independence.;

5. France recognizes an independent North Vietnam;

France managed to colonize Vietnam, as well as other parts of Indochina in a very well planned, and gradual, systematic taking over. After some time, the nations in Indochina, including Vietnam, started to rebel against the French, thus multiple battles occurred. The forces fighting for liberation of Vietnam were mostly with a communist ideology. The French, as well as the USA, were supporting an unpopular traditional leader of Vietnam, which didn't really helped their cause, apart from managing to extend their influence in part of Vietnam a bit longer. The communist where victorious though, and they managed to gain full control of North Vietnam. The French had no other option than recognizing North Vietnam, and avoid further troubles.
