An overview of the Cold War How can a war be ‘ cold ’ ? What were the Hotspots of the Cold War?

After World War 2 the Cold War began and caused tension throughout the world. The USA and the USSR were the two world Superpowers. The USA was a capitalist society with a democracy. The USSR was a communist country with a dictatorship. Both wanted to be the most powerful nation in the world.

Capitalism Economic system where property and businesses are privately owned People have freedom to succeed or fail

Communism Government provides everything for the people More security but less choice and freedom

Nuclear tensions The USA had shown its atomic power when it exploded the A-bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War 2. The USSR was also developing atomic weapons/bombs. The USA and the USSR were in competition with each other to have the best, most powerful weapons in the world – this was called the Arms Race.

After World War 2, the world changed! Many countries became communist after World War 2 including: -North Korea (1945) -Poland (1947) -Hungary (1947) -Czechoslovakia (1948) -China (1949) -Cuba (1959)

Germany - divided Germany, which had been ruled by Hitler and the Nazis until their defeat in 1945, was split in two. The western side became West Germany and the eastern side became East Germany. East Germany became another communist country.

The domino effect The USSR had a lot of influence over many of the new communist countries (especially those in Europe). The USA was very worried that the USSR ’ s influence over these countries was making the USSR and communism more powerful. The USA did not want communism to spread any further – they were worried about the domino effect (one country becomes communist, then another, then another, etc.)

Cold War? The tension and rivalry between the USA and the USSR was described as the Cold War ( ). There was never a real war between the two sides between 1945 and 1990, but they were often very close to war (Hotspots). Both sides got involved in other conflicts in the world to either stop the spread of communism (USA) or help the spread (USSR).
