Does this meet the requirements of "What impact did the Cold War and the Vietnam War have on the people of Washington?(4 points)"
The Vietnam War and Cold War drastically effected the people of Washington. The Cold War was created when the U.S. and Soviet Union entered an arms race, stockpiling weapons and expanding their bases, as the race went on, the U.S. became more sensitive to areas of interest. The Vietnam War was started in the 1960's when the Soviet Union took a point of interest for the U.S, south Asia, and threatened the U.S. with communism, pulling the U.S. into another war. Things slowly began to escalate to the point of the U.S. drafting men into the war. As the war continued in 1970, people began to fear being drafted in, and decided to protest against the drafts and demanded an anti-war movement. As the protests began to grow, in 1972, the U.S. was forced to withdraw its forces, and left the war.
