America and Russia, and the cold war was pretty much all a bluff. Russia said we are making a nuke. And then America said if you are building one we are building 10 and this just kinda escalated into the cold war. Neither country had nukes though. It was called the cold war because there was no gun fighting, infact it was fighting with words. A fake fight with words actually, because nothing either country said was true.

∙ 12y agoThe main countries involved in The Cold War were the U.S., the USSR (Soviet Union), Turkey, and Cuba. As you most likely already know, the conflict was held between the USSR and the US, but Turkey and Cuba had a big role too. Turkey, was the country that held the United state's Bombs which were aimed at the USSR, and Cuba held the USSR's bombs aimed at all the US's major cities. so, those are all 4 of the main countries involved in the Cold War.
