At the end of World War II, two countries stood above all the rest- the Soviet Union (or USSR) and the United States. These two countries came out of the war more powerful than all other countries and over the next fifty years or so, they largely dominated world affairs. In short:
So once the war was over, both countries began exerting influence over the world. The Soviets installed Communist governments in the countries they had liberated in Eastern Europe, forging the Warsaw Pact. Meanwhile, the US invested heavily in rebuilding Western Europe, forging NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization). NATO and the Warsaw Pact would be the two primary sides in the Cold War.
Instead of directly fighting against each other (ie "hot war"), the superpowers would get involved in civil wars, rebellions, and other political actions in smaller, less powerful countries, like Korea, Vietnam, Angola, Chile, Nicaragua, Afghanistan, and Iran, to name just a few (there's a lot more!). The superpowers would pick a side in these countries' conflicts and then support that side, by sending things like money, supplies, or even soldiers to fight.

Funfact: The end of World War II saw the rise of TWO superpowers: The US and the Soviet Union. That's why the forty years of glaring at each other and spying is considered a Cold War instead of two countries not liking each other.
