Drawn from Wikidata’s “part of” and “has part” between events with a page here. A war shows under every war it was part of: the Vietnam War under the Cold War, the Indochina Wars and the Second Indochina War. Within a war, the parts with parts of their own come first, then the others, each in date order. Some wars have no parts recorded yet, such as the Tây Sơn wars.
