    They did decide on gov'ts, jorbaud. Cuba's banana republic was overthrown, both Koreas were gov'ts run by outside forces and Vietnam had been fighting the French for their independence and winning before the United States stepped in.

    Cuba was not doing fine, they did not have a democracy. North and South Korea were not in control of their govt's, it was China/Russia and the United States. Vietnam had an existing rebel gov't successfully winnning back Indochina from it's colonizers.
