True

Explanation:

The Vietnam War that began in 1954 worsened the cold war that was ongoing between the United States and the Soviet Union. Over three million people died in the process, with fifty-eight thousand Americans but half of the entire people that died were Vietnamese civilians. When the communist forces took over the control of the southern part of Vietnam in 1975, the war ended. In 1976, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam was formed which became the new country for them.
