The Afghanistan War: Conclusion

Source: Britanica 

The economic principle I will explore is All choices have an opportunity cost. The question that will help me study this principle will be "What were the positives and consequences the United States faced so far during the Afghanistan War?"

After researching this question, I found that there were many fators that highlighted the rise and falls of the United States fighting in the Afghanistan War. When understanding the origin of the war and how the United States got involved in it, it allowed me to understand more about the war on terror and that it has helped fight against terrorists and their organization. However, when learning more about the costs of entering the war in Afghanistan, I found that the United States suffered the most economically, with spending billions of dollars on military spending, and along with loosing millions of soldiers stationed in Afghanistan. 

Finally, I was able to undertsand more clearly on how the Afghanistan War shapes America's view of its involvement in foriegn affairs. With contrasting beliefs existing about the United States' role in affairs, I also learned that our country was able in reconstructing the Afghan government and policies as well as providing aid towards those in need.
