What countries were involved in the Cold War?
In the cold war there was never any fighting but the countries that were involved were Russia, America and Cuba. Some have confused the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 with the Cold War. It was a part of the Cold War but not nearly all of it. And there was a great deal of fighting in countries like Greece, Korea, Angola, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Vietnam, Afghanistan and many other places. The global superpowers could not fight directly and keep the Cold War cold, so they fought smaller wars by proxy, used propaganda, espionage, arms escalation, and all methods short of direct warfare.Countries involved in the Cold War were mainly the United States and the Soviet Union, but also China, North and South Korea and Germany.

What were some battles of the cold war?
None, the cold war wasn't a war. However...Korea & Vietnam can be considered two "battles" of the cold war; since Korea/VN were "hot" (shooting & killing) wars during the cold war. The cold war was about communism vs free world. Korea/VN were both fought between communists and the free world.
Why is it named the cold war?
During the Cold War, the US and the USSR engaged in a complex global struggle for domination, but they never attacked each other directly, through bombing or invasion. Instead they fought wars in other countries such as Korea and Vietnam. It was a war with limits. That was because both sides knew that in an unlimited war, nuclear weapons would be used and everyone would lose.
What other countries were involved in the cold war other that US and USSR?
Red China, North Korea, Cuba, and of course North Vietnam & for the other side, France, UK, Canada, etc.
