How did south Vietnam violate the iron curtain?
There was no such thing as an "Iron Curtain" (a curtain made of iron). The name was simply a symbolic term representing communist countries, with the USSR primarily being the center focus. Consequently, the term "behind the iron curtain" meant being in a communist nation (primarily meaning the USSR).
What is meant by the North and South in reference to the Civil War?
The South was the Confederacy - the eleven states that had seceded from the USA. The North meant all the other states, and these included four states of the Upper South that had remained loyal. But their loyalty was often uncertain (a major worry to Lincoln), and all of them recruited some regiments of Confederates.
