The purpose of SEATO was to help ensure stability to South East Asia and stop the spread of communism to the area. It was designed to be similar to NATO and created because of the Truman Doctrine. The members of SEATO were: Australia, France, New Zealand, Pakistan, the Philippines, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The US attempted to get help from SEATO's member nations in Vietnam but was unsuccessful. The organization disbanded in 1977 officially.
