2  Nuclear arms changed their course  The Eisenhower was quite dependent on the CIA ( Central Intelligence Agency ) for information about the apposing countries  The CIA helped take down the enemies of the United States

3  The Soviet Union was scared of NATO so they had formed their own alliance, the Warsaw Pact  Why was the Soviet Union fearful of NATO and United States ?  NATO was being rearmed with the already experienced soldiers while the Soviet Union was kicked out and the created the Warsaw Pact  The downfall of the Warsaw Pact was that the soldiers were not as experienced and they didn’t have as many soldiers as NATO

4  The Warsaw Treaty Organization is also known as the Warsaw Pact  Created on 14 May 1955  There were eight countries whose representatives signed the  inaugural document – Albania; Bulgaria; Czechoslovakia; the German Democratic Republic; Hungary; Poland; Romania and the Soviet Union  Albania withdrew in 1968 in protest at the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia

5  Why was the Warsaw not successful?  It was not strong enough and the United States truly despised the Soviet Union  Following the diminishing power of the USSR in the 1980s and the eventual fall of Communism the treaty became redundant. The Warsaw Pact was officially dissolved in Prague in 1991, after successive governments withdrew their support of the treaty.
