Before We Begin
Welcome back to Debate Night, everybody! Tonight's topic is about the infamous and tragic Vietnam War. Who do you think won? Now is your chance to debate about it.
Premise
The Vietnam War was a war between North Vietnam and South Vietnam, sometimes thought of as part of the greater "Cold War" between the Soviet Union and the United States. Many people died, the vast majority of them Vietnamese, including civilians. The United States fought in it, angering many young Americans who were upset by the massive cost, both monetary and human. In the end, the North is sometimes considered to be victorious, but others argue that they were not. What do you think?
Instructions
Debate about whether the North or South won the war. Please note that this is not about who was the "rightful winner", but who logically emerged victorious, if anyone.
Rules
2. Be open-minded. Even if you disagree with someone, try to understand their point of view, or at the very least do not just call them wrong.
