The correct answer is D.

<em>President Eisenhower supported the French in Vietnam because he believed in the domino theory.</em>

The domino theory was prominent in the world's politics between 1950 and 1980. It stated that if one nation came under the influence of communism, then the surrounding countries would follow like in a domino effect.

After the Soviet Union ruled over most countries in Eastern Europe, Eisenhower was aware of the threat of communism spread. After the Korean War he was scared that the Communists would take over Indochina, as Korea was close to Vietnam. Burma, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia all had popular Communists movements active there at that time as well. The domino effect was very likely to happen in Southeast Asia, so he supported the French in Vietnam.

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Gideon was accused of a crime and brought to trial.

Gideon was denied counsel at the state court.

Gideon appealed the state decision to the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court heard Gideon's case and decided in his favor.

States became required to provide counsel to all defendants.

Explanation:

The ruling in Gideon v. Wainwright of 1963 was the ruling by which the Supreme Court guaranteed the right to defense in trial for all defendants who could not provide a private attorney, in accordance with the provisions of the Sixth Amendment.

In the case, Mr. Gideon was charged with a misdemeanor and taken to the local court, where he was denied the right to a free lawyer because the charge did not fall on a capital crime, with which the accused had to defend himself alone and lost the case.

Subsequently, through appeals, the case reached the Supreme Court, which understood that the right to legal advice established in the Sixth Amendment did not distinguish regarding the seriousness of the crimes.
