Explanation:
Athens and Sparta were two powerful rivaling city-states (poleis) in Ancient Greece. In some ways, they were similar, but their values and lifestyles were different. For example, their form of government wasn't too different. An Assembly, whose members were chosen by the people, was present in both city-states. Sparta had two kings, while archons, who were elected every year, ruled Athens. In Sparta, the focus among the people was on war and obedience. Since childhood, boys would train to become warriors, while girls were supposed to become mothers of warriors. Athens was completely different. The focus was on education, art, and science. Boys could become warriors but didn't have to.
You'll need to choose which thesis to argue. I'll provide you with some of the background info and thoughts.
The incident in the Gulf of Tonkin involved an attack and an alleged attack on US destroyers by North Vietnamese forces in August, 1964. On August 2, the USS Maddox was pursued by North Vietnamese torpedo boats. The Maddox fired warning shots, and the North Vietnamese then attacked with torpedoes and machine gun fire. The US suffered only minor and no casualties; the North Vietnamese boats were damaged and they suffered several casualties. On August 4, there was a report of a second Tonkin Gulf incident was alleged, but this later was revealed as a false report. Nevertheless, the American public was told of two attacks and the incidents were used to get Congress to pass the Tonkin Gulf resolution, which gave the President open-ended powers to deploy troops in the military effort in Vietnam.
The resolution had significant consequences for the Vietnam War and beyond that time. In regard to the Vietnam War, it provided the justification for the president, Lyndon Johnson, to escalate US involvement in the war and magnify the number of US troops there by hundreds of thousands. In US foreign policy in general, it represented an increase of the power of the Commander in Chief (the president) to deploy troops without getting formal approval in advance from Congress.
So for your thesis, you'll need to decide if you believe Congress should have retained more direct authority over the US of American forces in times of conflict, or if you support the idea of the President having greater ability to command the military's deployment on an as-needed basis. Response time is more agile and quick in the hands of the President, but there's less check and balance than having matters vetted through Congress before committing to US action.
