In the early 1950s the korean war threatened to a) endanger trade in and from the pacific ocean region. b) turn japan into a dangerous political and economic foe. c) cause a counterculture revolution in the united states. d) result in a nuclear attack by the soviet union on the u. s. elim

A--threatened trade in and out of the Pacific region. 

The Korean War was a conflict between the Northern communists and the Southern democratic portions of Korea. Trade with the area was important to the West and a new relationship with Japan. If the South was lost to the North, the trade connections would have been lost to communist areas. 

Ithink it’s bill gates.
