The Cold War

My Superpower is the U.S.A because we are not communists (Comms), we are capitalists or we are in democracy. The Cold War was between the U.S.S.R and the U.S.A. The U.S.A was trying to contain communism from spreading to other nations. There were many times that the U.S.S.R and the U.S.A clashed in ideologies. There were many times when things heated up in the cold war. The Cold War was actually around the world not just two nations. The Cold War lasted decades. It started on 1945 and ended on 1991. The main rivals in this war were the U.S.A and the U.S.S.R. The war started when U.S.A and the U.S.S.R competed for power. They wanted to be looked upon like the most powerful country in the world. Both nations were afraid to attack each other because there were many nuclear weapons, that would have probably blown the whole world up. The U.S.A went to two wars to try and contain communism. They failed once. The first war was not won or lost. So there is no failure or success there. They helped other countries like Greece with money so they did not fall in communism.
