☢️ The Cold War

📘 Summary

The Cold War was a period of intense tension between the United States and the Soviet Union after World War II.

From 1947 to 1991, the two superpowers opposed each other politically, economically, and militarily without directly going to war.

This rivalry led to major crises such as the Berlin Blockade, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the construction of the Berlin Wall.

The Cold War ended in 1991 with the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
