8 After World War II, although an international organization (the United Nations) was formed to ensure global peace and prosperity, that did not always happen. Germany would remain divided between a Soviet-influenced East Germany and a western-influenced West Germany. Europe itself would be divided into the Eastern bloc, dominated by the Soviet Union, and the Western bloc, tied to the United States.

9 This division along with other factors would force the United States and the Soviet Union into a Cold War. The Cold war was a period of hostility between the United States and the Soviet Union without any direct military conflict. This war of competing ideas would last for decades. There were 2 Proxy wars (wars where neither country ever came in direct contact with the other.) : the U.S. and Soviet Union were both involved in supporting Capitalism or communism in the Korean War of 1950-1953 and the Vietnam War of 1965-1973.

10 The Western bloc and the United States created NATO in 1949. Also, a military alliance primarily for discouraging the Soviet Union from aggression in Europe. Unfortunately, the Soviet Union would use their military force later against uprisings in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. (those countries were revolting for democracy)

11 During this Cold War it was clear that there were differences with the Soviets and the United States both politically & economically, US followed: Capitalism; USSR: Communism. To maintain control of Eastern Europe, or the Eastern bloc, the Soviets in 1955 created the Warsaw Pact, a military alliance tied Russia with other soviet nations. In addition, the Soviet Union also brought nations under its control in eastern Europe and made them into satellite nations. The main purpose of this was to create a buffer to protect themselves against invasion from the west.

14 The United States, as the leader of the non- Communist world, developed the Truman Doctrine to aid countries threatened by Communist takeover. In addition, just after WW2, the United States also created the Marshall Plan to help Western Europe’s democratic nations rebuilt their economies. (USA spent $14 billion rebuilding Western Europe economy).

15 The United States and Canada developed strong, closely-linked economies after World War II. The cold war affected American politics during the 1950s, when concern arose about Communist influences in American government and society. (McCarthy Hearings; Hollywood Ten who were accused but refused to testify in front of HUAC)

16 During the 1960s women, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Native Americans began to make advances in civil rights largely through mass protests and demonstrations. Also in the 1960s, the United States enters the Vietnam War to stop communism.* This war would divide the American society and lead to a questioning of the United State’s military role in world trouble spots.
