Bombing of Nagasaki - Jonah Perez

After 'Little Boy' or the first nuclear bomb dropped on Japan showed it's effectiveness at Hiroshima, another bombing mission was needed to see what damage a uranium bomb could do. On August 9, 1945 a plutonium bomb was dropped on the city of Nagasaki Japan. It was named 'Fat Man', and had the explosive capacity of 20,000 tons of high explosives. It also weighed about 10,000 pounds. After the bombs explosion Japan had surrendered to the United States.

The 38th Parallel - Jonah Perez

The 38th Parallel is a circle of latitude that is thirty-eight degrees north of the Earths equatorial plane. It was also made the dividing line of north and south Korea. It was first suggested as the dividing line for Korea in 1896. But it was not established as the dividing line until August 10th, 1948. Which was only four days before Korea's Liberation. But still today it divides North Korea from South Korea which have two very different governments. North Korea is a Juche Korean-style socialist republic, and South Korea is a presidential republic. 

The Domino Theory - Chase Hansen

                The domino theory, which governed much of U.S. foreign policy beginning in the early 1950s, held that a communist victory in one nation would quickly lead to a chain reaction of communist takeovers in neighboring states. In Southeast Asia, the United States government used the domino theory to justify its support of a non-communist regime in South Vietnam against the communist government of North Vietnam, and ultimately its increasing involvement in the long-running Vietnam War (1954-75). In fact, the American failure to prevent a communist victory in Vietnam had much less of a global impact than had been assumed by the domino theory. Though communist regimes did arise in Laos and Cambodia after 1975, communism failed to spread throughout the rest of Southeast Asia.
