You have to choose something like the Berlin Airlift for example, and you need to explain how it reflected the us policy of containment.
Be sure to add the bolded parts
here is some information you could use for the article you need to write--
<span> --The Berlin Airlift came about as a
result of an economic crisis and an attempt by the West to introduce a
new currency to stabilize the country’s finances.
The Russians closed
access to the Western-controlled sectors of Berlin, threatening to
starve the people in those sectors unless the Allies withdrew their
currency plans.
Since ground and rail transportation routes were blocked
by the Communists, the west flew planes into West Berlin with food and
supplies, starting in June of 1948.
By the following spring, more
supplies were reaching the city than had previously arrived by rail, and
the Soviets ended the blockade in May of 1949. None of this changed the
boundaries or lowered tensions much.

The West, primarily the U.S.
simply maintained the status quo with their policy of containment so
that Communism didn’t speak significantly into other parts of the world.
The freedom of West Berlin was an example of the will of the West to
maintain that containment.

if South Viet Nam fell to the Communists in the North, then the other
countries in the region would “fall like dominoes.” (</span><span>the domino theory)

B. A group of ideas or tenants of democracy
Through the many wars and peace congresses of the 18th century, European diplomacy strove to maintain a balance between five great powers: Britain, France, Austria, Russia, and Prussia. At the century’s end, however, the French Revolution, France’s efforts to export it, and the attempts of Napoleon I to conquer Europe first unbalanced and then overthrew the continent’s state system. After Napoleon’s defeat, the Congress of Vienna was convened in 1814–15 to set new boundaries, re-create the balance of power, and guard against future French hegemony. It also dealt with international problems internationally, taking up issues such as rivers, the slave trade, and the rules of diplomacy. The Final Act of Vienna of 1815, as amended at the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle (Aachen) in 1818, established four classes of heads of diplomatic missions—precedence within each class being determined by the date of presentation of credentials—and a system for signing treaties in French alphabetical order by country name. Thus ended the battles over precedence. Unwritten rules also were established. At Vienna, for example, a distinction was made between great powers and “powers with limited interests.” Only great powers exchanged ambassadors. Until 1893 the United States had no ambassadors; like those of other lesser states, its envoys were only ministers.
