To determine the correct answer, we need to understand which wars the United States fought after World War II in order to prevent countries in Asia from turning communist.
The correct answer is D. the Korean War & Vietnam War.
To arrive at this answer, let's analyze the other options:
A. The First Iraq War: This war took place in 1990-1991, which is after World War II. However, it was not fought to prevent countries in Asia from becoming communist, but rather to liberate Kuwait from Iraq's invasion.
B. The French and Indian War: This war occurred between 1754 and 1763, which is well before the United States' involvement in World War II and the subsequent events in Asia. Moreover, it did not have a direct relation to preventing Asian countries from turning communist.
C. The War in Afghanistan & the Gulf War: While the Gulf War (1990-1991) did occur after World War II, it was fought primarily to liberate Kuwait rather than to prevent Asian countries from becoming communist. The War in Afghanistan (2001-present) was fought to eliminate the Taliban and Al-Qaeda, not specifically to prevent Asian countries from turning communist.
D. The Korean War & Vietnam War: These are the correct choices. The United States fought in the Korean War (1950-1953) to prevent the communist North Korea from taking over the non-communist South Korea. Similarly, in the Vietnam War (1955-1975), the United States aimed to prevent the communist North Vietnam from conquering the non-communist South Vietnam.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. the Korean War & Vietnam War.
