Conflict and tension in Asia, 1950-1975 (AQA) - over 300 knowledge retrieval questions and answers

A set of 313 knowledge retrieval questions for the AQA GCSE unit ‘Conflict and tension in Asia, 1950-1975’ - with answers!

I produced these retrieval questions for my students so that all they had to do was to find the answers, transfer to flash cards, and start to learn the content. I thought it would be useful (and time saving) to produce a full set of answers, as well - whether you give these to your students is up to you!

The questions are divided into 10 sections, roughly corresponding to the headings in the AQA specification. There is also a section on the Cold War background up to 1950, to provide context for the outbreak of the Korean War.

A. Cold War background (20 questions
B. Background to the Korean War (27 questions)
C. The Korean War (23 questions)
D. End of the Korean War (26 questions)
E. Background to the Vietnam War (27 questions)
F. Increasing US involvement in Vietnam (34 questions)
G. The Vietnam War (68 questions)
H. Nixon’s war in Vietnam (28 questions)
I. Opposition to the Vietnam War (35 questions)
J. End of the Vietnam War (25 questions)
