Answer: Vietnam
Explanation:
Vietnam was originally divided into two (North and South Vietnam) in an attempt by the Western powers to weaken communism in the country. This eventually led to the Vietnam War of which the U.S. was heavily involved.
Towards the end of the war and as the U.S. was pulling out, the Communists gained the upper hand and as they began to capture more territory, people began fleeing South Vietnam by boat in order to escape communism. A lot of them eventually resettled in the U.S. in the last quarter of the 20th century.
There are a lot of things that has happened in those times. And there are also a lot of things that the cold war have affected the education spending in 1945 in to the 1990s. Of course, the demand in education would be higher , the higher the education you have, the more powerful you would get.
