18 Origins Of The Cold War
The Cold War divided the world into three sides after WWII - the Soviet Union, United States, and developing nations. The Soviets refused free elections in Eastern Europe and installed communist governments, while the US adopted a containment policy to stop communism's spread. Notable events included the Marshall Plan to rebuild Europe, the Berlin Airlift, the USSR developing an atomic bomb in 1949, the creation of NATO and Warsaw Pact alliances, and the Korean War stalemate of 1953. Fears of communism at home led to investigations and blacklists in the US government and film industry during this period.
