The American Revolution was based on national survival. The people of the thirteen colonies wanted a nation in which they were free of Britain’s tyranny. They wanted to live as an independent nation and survive as one. The American Civil War was another national survival. President Lincoln had the point that if was the unsuccessful or was pushed in the right direction then the nation would be divided into the north and south. World War One was fought as a result of both the gain of territory and national survival. Austria Hungary was expanding into western parts of Russia and Northern Italy. It was also conquering the nations to the east and taking control of their governments. The Allied powers soug

The POW camps the Chinese had were not like the camps that were operated by those of the Japanese and German in World War Two. The camps had no watchtowers, no barbed wire, no machinegun stands. The only way the camps were guarded was by a few guards in strategically placed areas. Soldiers also extremely exaggerated the number of enemy units approaching, describing regiments as divisions. Chinese tactics mad the United States forces think they were coming from all directions, they used bugles and whistles to create confusion, and they even played sweet music to distract the U.S forces. Many times attacking Chinese were described as sworms, waves, and hordes of Chinese. It seemed this way because they would sneak in at night and create havoc by destroying structures within the base so it seemed like more of the enemy.

The great defect in these wars and the cause of the outcomes was that political ideas do not endorse and support a war with non-combatants as successful as national survival. During the Vietnam War, people in the United States were at two extremes. Many did go to war, but those that did not volunteered for war were hated by the masses

of people who were against it. Riots were common and anti-war demonstrations plagued the nation. There was no support for soldiers or the cause of the war. “Veterans returning from the war were shunned, they were yelled at, cursed on, spit on, arrested and blamed for fights, they were beaten and scorn by the public.” (11) Families were torn apart and desecrated by neighbors. Veterans from previous wars had never before been greeted in this despicable manner.

presence of U.S. Military control in South Korea. “Mao Zedong thought the removal of United States troops was necessary to ensure a safe environment for communism to flourish without the persuasion of a capitalistic society.” (4) Mao ZeDong’s need to clear the U.S. forces because of many reasons or China would be in chaos. U.S forces occupied most of the Yalu River, if this remained, the northeastern defense force of China would be pinned down. Southern Manchuria had hydroelectric plants in the North Korea which could be controlled by U.S forces. As a result, international and domestic rioting would occur, also the question would arise of whether communistic society that China was using was better than the capitalistic democracy that the United States was using.
