The Cuban Missile Crisis was a conflict primarily between the United States and the Soviet Union. This crisis was brought on after the Soviets placed nuclear missiles in Cuba, which is very close to the United States. This is considered a crisis because the missiles placed in Cuba were dangerous since they could have easily been launched at the United States, hence starting the world's first nuclear war.
