Summary

The 17th parallel in Vietnam served as both a boundary between warring factions and as the backdrop for the Cold War fight that raged in Vietnam and throughout the world. Like many arbitrary borders around the world and over time, drawing this artificial line in no way ensured that further hostilities would be avoided.
