According to the domino theory, what did American leaders think might happen if Vietnam became a Communist country?
According to the domino theory American leaders feared that other surrounding countries would also become communistic countries falling like dominos.
When North Vietnam became Communistic it pressured South Vietnam. When South Vietnam became Communistic is put pressure on both Laos and Cambodia which also fell into the Communist camp.
The American leaders feared that as each country fell to communism it would put pressure on the next country until all of southeast Asia became Communistic.
