Cold'War

The cold war was the rivalry between U.S and U.S.S.R. It came about after WWII. It involed the United States, Soviet Union (USSR) and its satellite nations.Nobody knows when it really started. Some say it started after WW1 others say it started after WW2. Harry S. Truman (33rd president at the time) came up with the Truman Doctrine which was meant to support containment then the soviet unions expansion of communnism.

Joseph Stalin,first General of the communist party then became the leader of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) which was a constitutionally socialist state that existed in Eurasia from 1922 to 1991.
