Answer:

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question of who won the Vietnam War is a contentious and emotional one, because opinions in the United States were so divided while the war was happening. However, North Vietnam ultimately achieved all of its strategic goals while the United States did not. Most historians would agree that North Vietnam won the war. Militarily speaking, the war was the result of North Vietnam and the Vietcong attempting to overthrow the South Vietnamese government. The conflict was a continuation of the first Indochina war, which was fought when the Vietnamese sought independence from France after World War II.
