how did the vietnam and korean wars differ?
a. the vietnam war was a colonial revolution, but the korean war was a cold war proxy war.
b. the korean war was fought almost entirely by korean soldiers, but the vietnam war was fought largely by soviets.
c. the united nations supported the actions of the united states in the korean war but not in the vietnam war.
d. the soviet union provided military support in the vietnam war but not in the korean war.

Explanation:

The United Nations authorized the use of force to repel North - Korean aggression in the Korean War, giving support to the U.S. - led coalition. In the Vietnam War, the U.N. did not support U.S. actions in the same way. The Vietnam War was not a colonial revolution in the strict sense as it was also part of the Cold - War context, and both wars had foreign involvement. The Soviet Union provided support in both wars. The Korean War had a large number of non - Korean forces involved, and the Vietnam War was not fought largely by Soviets.

Answer:

C. The United Nations supported the actions of the United States in the Korean War but not in the Vietnam War.
