Naturally Vietnam put a bitter pill in the US, and after swallowing it, we had to let it settle for awhile. In the meantime the US still had a "cold war" to fight, and then the Iran hostage incident took center stage under the Carter Administration during the late 70's. Then President Reagan took office, and the "evil empire" (the communists), were NOT going to get any favors, this included the new fully communist country of Vietnam. US-Vietnamese relations finally opened up in 1994/1995.

They are one in the same.
Nixon had been elected to begin withdrawing US troops from Vietnam and to turn over more of the fighting to the South Vietnam government. In 1972, North Vietnam finally realized that the war was a stalemate. The two sides met and arranged a cease fire. In January of 1973 the Paris Accords went into effect. The US agreed to withdraw all its troops from Vietnam in 60 days. Congress had stopped funding the war effort. The North Vietnamese government agreed to release all prisoners, which they never did. Free elections were to be held in Vietnam. The President of South Vietnam considered the agreement between North Vietnam and the US as a sell out. But it allowed President Nixon to save face and bring the soldiers home. By 1975, after US troops had been pulled out of South Vietnam, the ARVN (Army of the Republic of South Vietnam) collapsed and the North Vietnamese moved into Saigon, ending the war and finalizing the take over of the South by the North.

A ceasefire in Vietnam occurred in 1973 through the signing of the Paris Peace Accords.

Most Historians like to use 1961 as the starting point for the war. The Vietnam War was NOT a civil war. A civil war is two armies from the same nation fighting itself. North Vietnam & South Vietnam were separate countries. They were never one country called Vietnam until 1975.
WWI, WWII, and Vietnam were fought against the nations of Germany, Italy, Japan, and North Vietnam respectively. No "nation" is at war with the "nations" of Iraq or Afghanistan. Those are law enforcement acts of violence occurring in those nations. Traditionally, a war is fought between two flags (two governments). Criminals (terrorists) have no flag (no government).
