The attempt to stop communism from spreading to Greece and Turkey after World War II was due to the Truman Doctrine.
The Truman Doctrine was a law proposed by US President Harry Truman. His goal was to stop the spread of communism (also known as containment). To ensure that Greece and Turkey (which are close to the Soviet Union) did not fall under the control of a communist nation, the US agreed to give $400 million to these countries. The goal was to help these countries recover from World War II as well as develop a political and economic alliance.

However, the government did not give in, and on July 4, 1776, the Second Philadelphia Congress took place, in which the colonists broke with the English, proclaiming their independence, with George Washington as the leader of the troops. England once again did not give in and the War of Independence of the Thirteen Colonies began. With French support, the colonies won in 1781 and their independence was recognized in 1783.
In 1787, a constitutional charter was enacted, which made the country a Presidential Federative Republic, with George Washington as its first president; it ensured civil rights and freedom and divided power into executive, legislative and judiciary.

Even with their independence, the colonies continued to diverge in politics and economics, leading to conflicts that led to the Civil War.
