INTRODUCTION TO THE COLD WAR

The Cold War, lasting from 1947 to 1991, was a period of intense geopolitical tension between the United States and the Soviet Union, along with their respective allies. Unlike traditional wars, the Cold War did not involve direct military conflict between the two superpowers. Instead, it was characterized by political, economic, and ideological battles that took place on a global scale.

This period saw a competition for influence over other nations, the proliferation of nuclear weapons, and numerous proxy wars in regions such as Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan.

The Cold War began in the aftermath of World War II when the wartime alliance between the United States and the Soviet Union broke down due to mutual distrust and conflicting ideologies. The US championed capitalism and democracy, while the USSR sought to spread communism.

POST-WAR SITUATION

The end of the Cold War led to significant global changes. The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 resulted in 15 independent republics. Former Soviet states and Eastern Bloc countries transitioned to market economies, facing economic challenges like inflation and unemployment. Politically, the collapse of communist regimes and the spread of democracy marked this period, with NATO and the EU expanding to include former communist states.

The post-Cold War era also saw regional conflicts and new security challenges, including nuclear proliferation and terrorism. US-Russia relations fluctuated between cooperation and tension, influenced by NATO expansion and regional disputes. The Cold War's legacy continues to shape global politics and security today.
