Assuming your question is in reference to the Vietnam War, the United States got involved because of

<h2>domino theory and the policy of containment.</h2>

"Domino theory" was applied in justifying US involvement in the Vietnam War.  Domino theory said that the spread of communism in Vietnam would result in other countries in the region falling like dominoes to the influence of communism.  

Domino theory was a corollary to the overall policy of containment that developed as  the United States' policy regarding communism after the end of World War II.  George F. Kennan is known for recommending the policy of containment, which said that the best way to deal with the threat of communism was simply to try to keep it contained to the places where it already existed.

Help me plss i just need the answer for 3
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

1. sense of grwat pride over their country 2. Keeping things how they are sacred /important 3. It can also create false superiority and tyranny.

Explanation:

1. in image A we get a clear sense of how the French celebrate each year to mark the French revolution. this establishes a sense of pride because by looking into the context of the photo and hsitory behind it, if the people make a holiday and do a great celebration to mark this day and it is celebrated with every citizen you get that's end often unity and joy that each person feels as they await for that day.

2. While it does create unity, image 2 depicts the idea that it can also cause some controversy. the context is that in Indja they peacefully decided to rebel against British Rule. By the people of the country rebelling it supports the idea that keeping things the way they were, were considered important because people feel the need to keep the cou tey the way it is and preserve it, for what they considered was the time in which their cou try is at its finest point.

3. finally it causes a false sense eof superiority because in image three we are clearly given the context that Germanh blamed their problems on those of other groups. Meaning that, they hold their country in high standards which can theorize the thought that they believe that they can do no wrong because they are the highest fo the highest nd have better power and anyone who is considered below them must be the reason fo their falling short.
