The Vietnam War was a result of the Cold War which involved two main ideologies, namely communist ideology and SEATO. The United States, as one of the powers supporting the French colonial government in Indochina, joined the war with the aim of fighting for democratic values and human rights in Vietnam.

The results of this research show that North Vietnam succeeded in achieving victory in the battle and there were several reasons that caused the defeat of the United States and also its influence on the Vietnam War.
