The two world leaders; the United States of America and the Soviet Union, both wanted to expand their influence into other countries, primarily unstable countries.

Naturally, two forces attempting to expand will run into each other eventually, which caused constant tensions. Both countries used their resources, which included the countries they influenced, to try to outwit the other, which led to the creation of organizations like the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, CSTO, the Warsaw Pact, and so-forth.

The influence became determined by government styles. You could tell that NATO controlled a country if it were Democratic/Capitalist, and you could tell the Soviet Union controlled a country if it were Communist.

Ironically, Black Ops is based on the Cold War (a war that was not fought, but just caused other wars.). It is based on the black ops missions that were in the Cold War. Now because most of these are classified missions and the public don't know about them, that doesn't mean that all of the missions in the game actually happened.
